Note:

OrCam supplies Bluetooth Earphones that connect to the OrCam devices. The OrCam devices can also connect to Bluetooth 4.2 earphones/speakers. However, we recommend testing the connection before purchasing Bluetooth earphones/speakers to use with the OrCam device since every company might use a slightly different device protocol and this could cause issues.

If your OrCam device is not connecting to Bluetooth, please follow the steps below:

  1. Confirm that both the OrCam Learn and the earphones are charged.
  2. Make sure you are pairing while both devices are in pairing mode.
    • To activate Bluetooth pairing mode on your OrCam device you can use the vocal command: “Hey OrCam, Connect to the Bluetooth audio device”and follow the prompts.
      • Alternatively; you can double tap on the trigger button and, after the long beep, say: “Connect to the Bluetooth audio device” 
    • You can also activate Bluetooth pairing mode through the settings menu:
      1. Click here for more information on how to enter the settings menu on the OrCam Learn.
      2. Once in the settings menu, scroll through until you reach: “Connectivity Settings Menu” and press the trigger button to select.
      3. Press the trigger button again to select “Bluetooth Settings Menu”.
      4. Press the trigger button again to select “Connect to Bluetooth Audio Device” and follow the prompts.
    • OrCam Earphones automatically enter pairing mode when powered on.
  3.  If you cannot pair the device with the OrCam earphones, try pairing the OrCam earphones with another device.
    • If the OrCam earphones won’t pair with another device please submit a case with our support team.
    • If the OrCam earphones will connect to another device;
      1. Try to forget all Bluetooth audio devices via the settings menu:
      2. Once you have entered the settings menu, scroll through until you reach: “Connectivity Settings Menu” and press the trigger button to select.
      3. Press the trigger button again to select “Bluetooth settings menu’.
      4. Scroll through until you reach: “Forget all Bluetooth Devices” and press the trigger button to select.
      5. Follow the prompts to forget all Bluetooth devices.
      6. Then try pairing again.
