There’s no option that appears on my iPhone or iwatch devices. What else might work as it keeps turning itself on!

We understand how important it is for you to be able to successfully manage your bluetooth devices. When you go to Settings>Bluetooth>select the blue "i" by the Bluetooth device that is needing to be removed, can you share with us the options that it shows on this page?

If you've got a smartwatch, it's paired to your phone and is using the Bluetooth for that connection.

Bluetooth keeps turning itself on. I never do. This problem started for the first time in the past two months. I do I permanently disable it?

DIATEN80, if you don't wish to use Bluetooth on a Apple device, they've got steps on how you can turn that off right here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/102412

 

Besides the short term options, if you go to the 'Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth' section towards the bottom of the page; it shares how exactly to turn Bluetooth off completely.
