Hi Waldo, Congratulations on your new WF1000XM5! regarding your question, no, Google account is not necessary to connect these earbuds to your iPhone. Follow the steps below to connect the WF1000XM5 to your iPhone: • The operation to register the device that you wish to connect to is called “pairing”. First, pair a device to use it with the headset for the first time. • Before starting the operation, make sure of the following: - The iPhone is placed within 1 m (3.2 ft) of the headset. - The headset is charged sufficiently. 1. Enter pairing mode on this headset. • When you pair the headset with a device for the first time after purchase or after initializing the headset (when there is no pairing information on the headset) - Lay the headset units on their sides and remove both headset units from the charging case. - The headset turns on automatically. - The headset enters pairing mode automatically. - When you are wearing the headset, you will hear a notification sound from both headset units at the same time, and you will hear a voice guidance say “Pairing”. When you are wearing only one headset unit, you will hear the notification sound and voice guidance from the headset unit you are wearing. 2. Unlock the screen of the iPhone if it is locked. 3. Find the headset on the iPhone. - Select [Settings]. - Touch [Bluetooth]. - Touch the switch to turn on the Bluetooth function. - Touch [WF-1000XM5]. - The headset and iPhone are paired and connected with each other. Note: • When the headset is placed in the charging case, the indicator (blue) on the charging case flashes 10 times. • When you are wearing the headset, you will hear a notification sound indicating that the connection is established from both headset units at the same time. When you are wearing only one headset unit, you will hear the notification sound from the headset unit you are wearing.
