secure connections while bypassing the discovery and
authentication process.

Verify your Bluetooth is active.

Tap Scan devices. Your device will display a list of

discovered in-range Bluetooth devices.

3.

The external device will then have to also accept the

connection and enter your device’s PIN code.
