My Phone’s Visibility

When the Bluetooth Visibility is turned on, your phone is wirelessly transmitting its
phone name and status. This can be useful if you are attempting to connect
additional Bluetooth devices. Allowing your phone to promote its visibility can pose a
security risk and incite unauthorized connection.

When pairing your Bluetooth device to another device, use the Secure

Mode.

My Phone’s Name

When your phone’s Bluetooth visibility is turned On, it identifies itself using the name
entered into this text field. This name can be altered by selecting the pre-existing
text and selecting a new text string in its place. This feature should be paired with a
Bluetooth security option.
