Background
When I do a web search for "how to connect shokz opencomm", the only instructions, search results point me to a brief video. I prefer text instructions, so I can visually skip around to the topics I need. The OpenComm headset is a great product, but I find its controls less-than-obvious, and on the rare occasion that my wife asks me for help pairing them with a new laptop, I always have to dig up instructions. Now I have a handier version... and so do you! :)
