I bought the charge essential. Works perfectly on my Samsung mobile (from 2017) but can't connect with my Samsung tablet from 2017 (with Android 8.1 and according to the data the software has been updated). Buy the bluetooth settings on my tablet. I can't get the name of the JBL with found bluetooth devices. How can I fix this.

For some time now, my JBL Flip Essential has been constantly switching off (after 10 - 20 seconds) while playing music. My Samsung cell phone shows in the settings that a connection has been established. I tried connecting via WiFi but also via mobile data. Both with the same negative result. I also downloaded the JBL app onto my cell phone.
