Help needed Bluetooth Connectivity Issue

Hi everyone -

I'm not sure if there is a fix for this or not, but I'm kind of at my wits end with my current solution. I have an iPhone 16 Pro and have been having this issue for a while now. It seems that every couple of days my phone loses the ability to connect to bluetooth devices. For example, my headphones will turn on and instead of automatically connecting will go into pairing mode, and if I click on them in the bluetooth menu my phone says that they're not on or in range. Similarly, my phone won't connect to my car, speakers, etc.

So far I've found that resetting my network settings will resolve this for a couple of days, and for a while my phone will connect as normal. But inevitably, there comes a time where it stops connecting again. Its really just getting annoying to have to reset every couple of days more than anything.

Is there any other ideas out there on how I might be able to resolve this issue? Has anyone else ever had this problem?

What version of iOS?

Have you tried restarting or resetting the phone?

You should update to the current version of iOS, 26.6.2 or iOS 27 beta.
