I’m using iPhone SE 2 and I know how to make a shortcut to turn my Bluetooth off and on but can someone please explain to me how to make a shortcut that instruct my phone to connect to my Jabra Move headset? When I turn on Bluetooth it does not automatically connect, possibly because I use the headset on more than one devise.
iPhone SE

Hello Melanie,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities! I understand that you're wondering if there's a way to create a shortcut that can be used to connect your iPhone SE (2nd generation) automatically to your Jabra Move headset.
Under the Gallery tab in the Shortcuts app, you'll find a shortcut called "Set Audio Output." This shortcut would allow you to route the audio playing on your iPhone to AirPods, Bluetooth headphones, or any other device that supports AirPlay:
Discover shortcuts in the Gallery - Apple Support
Beyond that shortcut, Set Bluetooth (on/off) is the only other action that the Shortcuts app currently supports for Bluetooth shortcuts.
Take care.

I just used the shortcut you suggested and it worked and it also allowed me to connect my headset to both my laptop and my phone at the same time which I have never been able to do before! So thanks again :)

If you use Bluetooth devices there is never a good reason to turn it off; why don’t you just leave it on?

Because I use the headset on my laptop and it won’t connect unless it’s not connected to something else. Then when I want to go back to iPhone I have to manually connect it again.
