Bluetooth® wireless technology

What is Bluetooth® wireless technology?

With the Bluetooth® wireless technology on your smartphone, you can connect to a number of Bluetooth devices, including a hands-free device such as a headset or car kit (see Set up and use a Bluetooth® hands-free device). If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you may also be able to use your smartphone to connect your computer to the Internet (see Use your smartphone as a modem).

Before you can connect to another Bluetooth device, you need to pair with that device. You can either make the pairing request from your smartphone (see Make a pairing request to another device), accept a pairing request from the other device (see Accept a pairing request from another device) or use Touch to share to pair with a webOS tablet (see Pair with an HP webOS tablet using Touch to Share).
