I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones, which I have been using since 2022. Today, I was sitting on the bus when some random person connected to them and started playing Free Bird.

It was a bit funny, but I don’t want this to become a regular thing. Is there a way of locking the headphones to certain Bluetooth addresses? Or a way of making it not show up automatically on phones (similar to a hidden WiFi network)?

The headphones in question are the JBL Tune 510, which have a USB-C port. However, I don’t know if this can be used to flash firmware.

If there’s already a comment telling me to “just use wired” or something, please don’t tell me again. It’s the best solution, but my phone doesn’t have a headphone jack (fuck you, Apple).

Thanks!

    You can buy a tiny DAC that plugs into the digital port of the phone.

      While a bit expensive, the Fiio BTR5 sounds phenomenal over USB
