Send and Receive Information Using Bluetooth

You can use Bluetooth to transfer information between your phone and another Bluetooth-
enabled device such as a phone or notebook computer. The first time you transfer information
between your phone and another device, you need to enter or confirm a security passcode.
After that, your phone and the other device are paired, and you will not need to exchange
passcodes to transfer information in the future.

Send Information from Your Phone to Another Device

You can send the following types of information, depending on the device you are sending to:

Images and videos

set it to “Receive

Beams” or “Receive Files”. Refer to the device’s documentation for instructions on
