Samsung How to Use Bluetooth

In order to use Bluetooth functions, the Samsung device and another device must first be paired. The process can differ depending on the device. For smartphones, both devices only need to agree to the pairing. Car radios usually require a code to be entered on the Samsung device. For Bluetooth headsets, it is sufficient to simply pair the devices, without the need for a code or similar.

Once the Samsung device is connected to another, this device is stored and does not require a code for further connections.

By default, the Samsung device displays the device name of the paired device, which can be renamed in the respective connection settings.

Devices that are connected to the Samsung smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth can send and receive files such as photos, documents or even videos.

Devices connected via Bluetooth can use the Samsung device's Internet. To do this, the device must already be successfully paired. By default, Bluetooth tethering is disabled. To use the Samsung device's Internet, Internet access must be enabled on the connected device.

If a Bluetooth connection is no longer needed or not wanted, the pairing can be cancelled on the Samsung device, which requires a new pairing and no longer automatically connects.

In order to connect the Samsung device to other devices via Bluetooth, Bluetooth itself must first be activated. Stored Bluetooth connections are automatically established when they are in the vicinity, such as cars or even loudspeakers. If Bluetooth is not used, the function should be switched off in order to avoid unnecessary strain on the battery.

Note: Bluetooth can also be switched on/off via the quick settings.

With the Bluetooth Tethering function, all devices connected via Bluetooth can share their own Internet connection.

Note: This function enables the Internet for all connected devices.
