Its wild to see such different experiences. I have QC35s and they've never paired correctly with my iPhone. Part of that, I suspect, is because you have to use the stupid Bose app to pair your BT headphones. Why Bose doesn't let you pair them using the standard system is beyond me.
In the end I only use the QC35s on my laptop which is a total disappointment.

The app collects data on what music you listen to and sends it back to Bose. So obviously they want to encourage you to install and use the app.
Last I checked, at least. Also, there are _two_ Bose apps now, and which one you use depends on which Bose QuietComfort headphones you have. That I have no explanation for.
It does! You can turn it off but by default it sends usage data back to Bose. To disable this go there hidden the setting under the profile icon in the top left then Privacy Policy.
I don't use my QC700s because I had so many pairing issues. I'm using Steelseries ones with a boom (great quality but I look like a helicopter pilot on zoom).
My QC35s disconnects every 10 minutes on Windows desktops or Apple Macbooks. It's better wired but even wired I can hear it cut out for a bit sometimes.
