Connect to a Bluetooth device

  1. Tap Settings > Connected devices > Connection preferences > Bluetooth.
  2. Switch on Use Bluetooth.
  3. Make sure that the other device is switched on. You may need to start the pairing process from the other device. For details, see the user guide for the other device.
  4. Tap Pair new device and tap the device you want to pair with from the list of discovered Bluetooth devices.
  5. You may need to enter a passcode. For details, see the user guide for the other device.

Since devices with Bluetooth wireless technology communicate using radio waves, they do not need to be in direct line-of-sight. Bluetooth devices must, however, be within 10 metres (33 feet) of each other, although the connection may be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or from other electronic devices.

Paired devices can connect to your tablet when Bluetooth is switched on. Other devices can detect your tablet only if the Bluetooth settings view is open.

Do not pair with or accept connection requests from unknown devices. This helps to protect your tablet from harmful content.

Share your content using Bluetooth

If you want to share your photos or other content with a friend, send them to your friend's device using Bluetooth.

You can use more than one Bluetooth connection at a time. For example, while using a Bluetooth headset, you can still send things to another device.

  1. Tap Settings > Connected devices > Connection preferences > Bluetooth.
  2. Make sure Bluetooth is switched on for both devices and that the devices are visible to each other.
  3. Go to the content you want to send and tap share > Bluetooth.
  4. On the list of found Bluetooth devices, tap your friend's device.
  5. If the other device needs a passcode, type in or accept the passcode, and tap PAIR.

The passcode is only used when you connect to something for the first time.

Remove a pairing

If you no longer have the device with which you paired your tablet, you can remove the pairing.

  1. Tap Settings > Connected devices > Previously connected devices.
  2. Tap settings next to a device name.
  3. Tap FORGET.
