Reply to IOS 14.4 Continued Bluetooth Issues
Unfortunately, the "forget all BT devices" advice does not work. Neither does "Erase All Contents and Settings", etc. After multiple different tries, Apple sent me a replacement iPhone SE2, and it skips on BT too! It's an intermittent, fraction of a second, skip/pause/interruption of the BT signal. These "skips" occur on devices with BT v4.0, v4.2. v5.0 - Apple products, Bose, MPOW, Anker - does not matter. Phone in pocket or on table within a one foot of the device (headphones, speaker) - it doesn't matter since it still eventually skips. My old iPhone SE1, and my wife's iPhone X do not have the same skip issue (all have iOS 14.4 installed). Apple engineering had me download logging software and ran direct reports off of my iPhone SE2 while I kept a log (time of day) of when the BT "skips". The engineering department analyzed the report and indicated that it was a "known issue" that would be fixed in an "upcoming iOS update". Unfortunately, they didn't specify when. One would hope it would be fixed with iOS 14.5 since 14.4.1 was a security update only. Very annoying when it happens to say the least.
