Powering on your Triby

Bluetooth pairing
- You will now need to pair Triby to your phone via Bluetooth. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your phone, then wait until your phone has detected Triby for Bluetooth pairing. If you previously went through a factory reset, don’t forget to go to your phone Bluetooth settings and make it forget your Triby first (otherwise it won’t be able to connect). Read more
