Hi JosephB,

Thank you for bringing your connection issue to our attention and sharing your honest feedback. We understand how disappointing it is when you can’t easily connect your WH-1000XM4 headphones using the Sony | Headphones Connect app, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration.

We want to help you restore the smooth connection you expect. Please follow these two steps, which are highly effective for resetting the connection:

1. Completely uninstall the Sony | Headphones Connect app from your device, then restart your phone/tablet. Re-download and reinstall the app from the official app store. This clears old cached data and ensures a fresh setup.,

2. Reset the headset: While the headset is connected to a charging cable, press and hold both the (power) button and the CUSTOM button (or NC/Ambient button) simultaneously for about 7-10 seconds.

After performing these steps, try connecting your headphones with the app again.

If the connection is still not performing correctly, we strongly encourage you to contact our dedicated technical support team. We can walk you through further diagnostics, and provide personalized assistance to get you connected.
