Bluetooth on my IPAD can not locate any devices. It just keeps searching for devices. I’ve tried all combinations with the devices with no luck. Any ideas?
iPad Pro, iOS 13

There are 2 or 3 ways for your iPad to detect and allow Bluetooth devices to work.
To begin with, you can usually only have 1 device in contact with Bluetooth. I have a Bluetooth set of headphones with me right now. You can access the Bluetooth system in 2 ways. Start by clicking on System preferences>Bluetooth.
Make sure that the device you wish to be 'discoverable' by Bluetooth is in the window:
To pair the 2 devices (laptop and phones,) I need to click a button on the headphones to make the headphones discoverable.
Another way is to click on the Bluetooth icon in the toolbar at the top of the screen:
I click on connect, and then click the button on the phones and the 2 devices are paired.
Hope that helps.
most bluetooth devices needs to be put into pairing / discovery mode first time they connect to a device
