Bluetooth partnerships

A Bluetooth partnership is a relationship that you create between your

phone and another Bluetooth-enabled device in order to exchange

information in a secure manner.
Creating a partnership between two devices involves entering the

same passcode on both devices, and this is a one-time process. Once a

partnership is created, the devices can recognize the partnership and

exchange information without entering a PIN again. Make sure the two

devices are within a range, and Bluetooth is turned on and in visible mode.
