To stop your iPhone from automatically connecting to your Mac, you can follow these steps:
1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap on “Bluetooth”.
3. On the Bluetooth settings page, you will see a toggle switch. Tap on the toggle switch to turn off Bluetooth. This will disable Bluetooth on your iPhone and prevent it from automatically connecting to any nearby devices, including your Mac.
If you want to ensure that your Mac doesn’t automatically connect to your iPhone in the future, you can also follow these additional steps:
1. On your iPhone, go back to the Bluetooth settings page.
2. Scroll down to the “My Devices” section, where you will find a list of devices that your iPhone has previously connected to.
3. Look for your Mac in the list and tap on the info “i” button next to it.
4. On the device details page, you will see an option to “Forget This Device”. Tap on it to remove your Mac from the list of remembered devices.
By forgetting your Mac as a connected device, you are essentially telling your iPhone to no longer automatically connect to it when Bluetooth is turned on. This can be useful if you don’t want your iPhone and Mac to be constantly connected or if you want to prioritize connecting to other devices.
Remember that if you want to reconnect your iPhone to your Mac in the future, you will need to manually go through the pairing process again by turning on Bluetooth and selecting your Mac from the list of available devices.
I hope these steps help you stop your iPhone from automatically connecting to your Mac. Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns!
