Bluetooth audio is delayed or out of sync
Bluetooth has a small natural delay. You don't notice it. If the delay is noticeable, something is interfering with your connection. Try restarting Bluetooth, moving away from WiFi routers, or moving closer to your Bluetooth device.
Bluetooth sends audio through radio waves that can bounce around your home. When your device is far away or surrounded by other wireless signals, the audio gets delayed. Moving away from WiFi routers and closer to your Bluetooth device fixes this.
- ✓Check if the delay happens with all your Bluetooth devices or just one
- ✓Note if other WiFi or Bluetooth devices are running nearby
- ✓Have time to move away from potential interference sources

Skip, I just want a technicianCommon mistakes to avoid
- Blaming your phone immediately instead of checking if WiFi interference is the cause.
- Only restarting the phone and not the Bluetooth device itself.
Signs you need professional help
- Delay continues after resetting both your phone and Bluetooth device, delay only happens with one specific app, or delay happened suddenly after working fine for months.
