Step-By-Step: How To Connect AirPods To Samsung TV
It's great to pair your AirPods with your Samsung TV, especially if there is a lot of noise in the room and you can't hear what's being played. They can also help keep noise down so people can work or sleep.
No matter why you want to connect your AirPods to your Samsung TV, the steps below will make sure you do it right.
Making Your AirPods Discoverable
Before you can do anything with your TV, you need to make sure your AirPods are in pairing mode so the TV can pick up their Bluetooth signal.
Press and hold the button on the back of the AirPods case until the light starts to flash. This will let other devices find your AirPods. This is how you can tell they are doing their job.
Access Bluetooth Menu On The Television
The first step, just like with any other smart device that has Bluetooth, is to go to the settings menu on the TV. Once you are in the settings menu, scroll down to the Bluetooth menu and press enter/ok.
At this point, you should be able to see the name of your AirPods on a list of available devices. When you see your AirPods, all you have to do is click on them and let Bluetooth do the rest.
Troubleshooting When AirPods Won’t Connect
You've done all of the steps above, but your AirPods won't connect to your Samsung TV. What should you do?
If your AirPods or TV aren't working, it's best to start from scratch. Both devices should turn off their Bluetooth. Then, turn off both gadgets for about ten seconds. Start the devices back up and repeat the steps above to see if the problem is fixed. Most of the time, reconnecting the devices will fix any problems.
If there are other Bluetooth devices in the area that are turned on, they can sometimes make it hard to connect. If none of these steps work, try turning off Bluetooth on other devices nearby to see if that helps.
