Bluetooth

Note: For Hearing Aid Compatibility Information, see page 196.

Bluetooth is a short-range wireless communications technology for exchanging information over a distance of about 30 feet. You don’t need to line up the devices to send information with Bluetooth. If the devices are in range, you can exchange information between them, even if they are in different rooms.

Your device can use Bluetooth to share photos, contacts and other content with other Bluetooth devices. Many of the apps on your device provide options for sharing via Bluetooth

under Menu.

Configure your device’s Bluetooth settings. For more information, see “Bluetooth” on page 133.
