Pairing Bluetooth 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.
Note: Pairing between two Bluetooth devices is a one-time process. Once
pairing is established the devices continue to recognize their partnership
and exchange information without entering a passcode.

external device.

discovered in-range Bluetooth devices.
4. Tap a device from the list to initiate pairing.
