®
on/off
in your device settings. If you're still having problems, try
restarting your device completely.

This is most likely caused by Bluetooth

there are no other Bluetooth

on (especially audio devices), as these can cause interference
which can cause issues. If you're still having problems try
turning your device's WiFi off to reduce interference.

Ensure that the Pod is in an open clear space indoors with line
