The BTunes supports multi-point connection (2 at the moment). Multi-point connection means that BTunes will connect with two devices, and you can stream with the BTunes one at a time. It's not simultaneous streaming from two devices.

For example, you can pair the BTunes with your 1) iPhone, 2) iPad. When you turn on the BTunes, it will try to connect with the two previously connected devices or iPhone or iPad. As long as the iPhone and iPad are close by and bluetooth is on, you will hear the voice prompts (one for each device). If iPad is off or the bluetooth is off, the BTunes will not connect with it. When you turn on iPad, go to the Bluetooth area and tap "the BTunes" to make connection. The option is simple, as soon as you turn on the BTunes, it will look for two previous connected devices.

If you pair with 3 devices, for example, 1) iPhone, 2) iPad, 3) the tiny transmitter. When you turn on the BTunes, it will try to make connection with two previous connected devices. Do you have to remember which two? If you can remember them, that's good. Otherwise, I'd suggest to turn on bluetooth only on two devices that you want to listen to.

When you have two connections with two devices, it's dictated by Bluetooth that BTunes works between two devices at a time. If you connect with 1) iPhone and 2) iPad, you can watch on iPad, when a call comes in, you can pick up the call on the BTunes, the playing on iPad stops. After you finish your call, the iPad resumes. If you stop watching iPad, (give it a few more seconds so BTunes knows), you can go to your iPhone and play music.

Let's assume that you connected the BTunes with 1) Samsung S6, 2) iPad mini. You can check the bluetooth area on S6 and iPad.

After you stop listening to your S6, give it a few more seconds, once BTunes is in standby mode on both devices, you can play on your iPad mini to stream it to the BTunes.

A few more words on multi-point connections.

When you connect the BTunes with two devices, keep the following in mind. How you want to stream is first come and first serve, but the phone call takes more priority.

For example, you connect it with a phone and a tablet. Without anything playing on the phone/tablet, they are all on standby. The BTunes will stream whatever you play first on one of those two devices. When you decide to switch to another device, stop the first, wait for a few more seconds, to move the first device from active to standby, and then play on the second device.

Whatever you do, when a phone call comes in, the BTunes stops playing on either one of those two devices and waits for you to pick up the call.

Thank you for your picture. We are collecting more such photos to expand the list of supported headphones.
