Connect to Bluetooth devices

Bluetooth lets you use all sorts of wireless devices with your phone—Bluetooth headsets, headphones, a hands‑free system in your car, speakers, fitness trackers—to name a few.

Start by pairing your Bluetooth device with your phone. The way you do this depends on the kind of Bluetooth device you're using.
