How to Connect Your Woojer Vest 4 to Your Computer

The basic steps to pair your Woojer Vest 4 with a PC

The Woojer Vest 4 connects to your PC through Bluetooth, the same wireless technology that pairs headphones or game controllers to a computer. The process takes about five minutes and involves turning on the vest, putting your PC in pairing mode, and selecting the vest from your Bluetooth devices list. Once paired, the vest will reconnect automatically when you turn it on near your computer.

Before you start, make sure your PC has Bluetooth built in or has a Bluetooth adapter plugged in. Most laptops made in the last five years have Bluetooth. Desktop computers often do not, so you may need a USB Bluetooth adapter (available for $10 to $30 at electronics retailers).

Key Takeaways

The Woojer Vest 4 uses Bluetooth to connect to your PC, which means your computer must have Bluetooth capability or a USB adapter.
You must turn on the vest and hold the power button for three seconds to enter pairing mode before your PC can find it.
On Windows, you access Bluetooth settings through Settings > Bluetooth & devices, and on Mac through System Settings > Bluetooth.
Once paired, the vest will show up in your audio output options and you can route sound to it from games, videos, or music apps.

Turning on the vest and entering pairing mode

Press the power button on the Woojer Vest 4 once to turn it on. You will see a light indicator on the device. Then hold down the power button for three seconds until the light blinks rapidly (usually blue or white). This rapid blinking means the vest is in pairing mode and searching for a device to connect to. The vest will stay in pairing mode for about two minutes, so you need to start the pairing process on your PC right away.

If the light stops blinking before you finish pairing on your PC, hold the power button again for three seconds to re-enter pairing mode. You can do this as many times as needed.

Pairing on Windows 10 or Windows 11

Open the Windows Settings app by pressing the Windows key and typing "Settings," then press Enter. Click on "Bluetooth & devices" in the left menu. Make sure the Bluetooth toggle at the top is turned on (it should be blue). You will see a section that says "Add device" or "Add a device" — click that button.

A window will open asking what type of device you want to add. Select "Bluetooth." Windows will now search for nearby Bluetooth devices. The Woojer Vest 4 should appear in the list within 10 to 15 seconds. Click on it to select it. Windows may ask you to confirm the pairing — if so, click "Yes" or "Pair." The vest should now show as "Connected" in your Bluetooth devices list.

Pairing on Mac

Click the Apple menu in the top left corner and select "System Settings" (or "System Preferences" on older macOS versions). Click "Bluetooth" in the left sidebar. Make sure Bluetooth is turned on — you will see a toggle switch at the top. Your Mac will automatically search for nearby Bluetooth devices.

The Woojer Vest 4 should appear in the list of available devices within 10 to 15 seconds. Click on it and then click "Connect." Your Mac may ask you to confirm — if so, click "Connect" again. Once paired, the vest will show as "Connected" in the Bluetooth menu.

Routing audio to the vest after pairing

After pairing, the Woojer Vest 4 will appear as an audio output device on your PC. To send sound to the vest, you need to change your default audio output. On Windows, right-click the speaker icon in the bottom right corner of your taskbar, select "Open Volume mixer," and look for the Woojer device in the list. Click on it to route audio to the vest. On Mac, click the speaker icon in the menu bar at the top, and select the Woojer Vest 4 from the dropdown list.

You can also change the audio output within individual apps. In most games, video players, and music apps, you will find an audio settings menu where you can select the Woojer Vest 4 as the output device. This is useful if you want to use your regular speakers for some apps and the vest for others.

Troubleshooting connection problems

If the vest does not appear in your Bluetooth device list, first check that it is in pairing mode (the light should be blinking rapidly). If the light is not blinking, hold the power button for three seconds again. Make sure your PC's Bluetooth is turned on — on Windows, check the Bluetooth toggle in Settings; on Mac, check the Bluetooth menu in the top menu bar.

If the vest appears in the list but will not connect, try "forgetting" the device and pairing again. On Windows, right-click the Woojer Vest 4 in your Bluetooth devices list and select "Remove device." On Mac, click the X next to the vest in the Bluetooth menu. Then repeat the pairing steps from the beginning. If you still have trouble, restart both your PC and the vest, then try pairing again.

If the vest is connected but you hear no sound, check that it is selected as your audio output device. Also check the volume level on your PC — the vest will only produce haptic feedback if audio is actually being sent to it. Some apps have their own volume controls, so make sure the app itself is not muted.

Reconnecting the vest to your PC in the future

Once you have paired the Woojer Vest 4 with your PC, you do not need to go through the full pairing process again. straightforward turn on the vest by pressing the power button once. Your PC will recognize it and connect automatically within a few seconds. The vest will appear in your Bluetooth devices list as "Connected."

If your PC does not reconnect automatically, make sure Bluetooth is turned on and the vest is within about 30 feet of your computer. If the vest still does not connect, you can manually select it from your Bluetooth devices list and click "Connect."

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to buy a Bluetooth adapter for my desktop PC?

Only if your desktop does not have built-in Bluetooth. Most desktop computers do not, but some newer models do. Check your PC's specifications or look in Device Manager (Windows) or System Report (Mac) to see if Bluetooth is listed. If not, a USB Bluetooth adapter costs $10 to $30 and works with any PC.

Can I connect the Woojer Vest 4 to multiple devices at once?

The vest can be paired with multiple devices, but it can only connect to one at a time. If you want to switch from your PC to your phone, turn off Bluetooth on your PC or move the vest out of range, then it will connect to your phone. To switch back, do the same process in reverse.

Why is the vest connected but I am not feeling any haptic feedback?

Check that the vest is selected as your audio output device in your PC's sound settings. Also make sure the app you are using (game, video player, music app) is actually playing sound — the vest produces haptic feedback based on the audio signal it receives, so if no sound is playing, you will not feel anything.

How far away can the vest be from my PC and still stay connected?

Bluetooth typically works reliably within about 30 feet of your PC, though this can vary depending on obstacles like walls or other wireless devices. If you move the vest farther away, the connection may drop. Moving it back within range will reconnect it automatically.
