Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, JohnL.
We are so pleased to hear that your WH-1000XM4 headphones are working great for you. It’s rewarding to know that you are enjoying their performance.
We also understand your frustration with connecting and switching between Apple devices. This is not the seamless experience we aim to deliver, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.
The WH-1000XM4 headphones support a multi-point connection, allowing you to connect to two devices simultaneously, which can often streamline the switching process. We recommend ensuring that this feature is enabled in the Sony | Headphones Connect app and that the app is updated to the latest version. Sometimes, performing a restart of your devices or un-pairing and re-pairing the headphones can also resolve these connectivity issues.
If the problems continue, please don't hesitate to contact our product support team directly. They are the best resource for providing specific troubleshooting steps tailored to your setup.
Thank you again for being a Sony customer and for your valuable feedback.
Best regards, Gus, Sony Social Media Team
