Pairing Bluetooth Devices
Paired Devices
The Bluetooth pairing process allows you to establish trusted connections between your device and
another Bluetooth device. When you pair devices, they share a passkey, allowing for fast, secure
connections while bypassing the discovery and authentication process.
To pair your phone with another Bluetooth device:
1. Verify your Bluetooth is turned on.
2. From the Bluetooth settings page, tap
Discoverable
to place a checkmark and make your device
visible. Your device must be visible to successfully pair with an external device.
3. Tap
Scan for devices
. (Your device will display a list of discovered in-range Bluetooth devices.)
4. Tap a device from the list to initiate pairing.
5. Depending on the device, you might have to tap
Pair
to accept the passkey (if they match on both
devices), enter the passkey or PIN Code, or confirm matching passkeys.
6. Tap
Done
>
OK
if you entered a passkey, PIN code, or passkey.
7. The external device will then have to accept the connection and enter your device’s PIN code.
