bluetooth pairing
Device connection ritual
Bluetooth pairing is the process of establishing a wireless connection between two Bluetooth-enabled devices, allowing them to communicate and share data.
The devices exchange security information to recognize each other for future connections: I'm having trouble with Bluetooth pairing—my headphones won't connect to my phone.
Once paired, devices typically reconnect automatically when in range.
