How do I make my Bluetooth private?
Protecting Bluetooth networks
- Configure devices so that the user has to approve any connection request.
- Turn off Bluetooth when not in use.
- Do not operate Bluetooth devices in Mode 1; ensure discovery mode is enabled only when necessary to pair trusted devices.
Why is my phone visible on Bluetooth?
Even if Bluetooth is turned on, your phone itself might not be ‘discoverable’. This means that a Bluetooth device you haven’t yet paired cannot see your phone. To make it visible to other devices, open the main Bluetooth settings. On Android, phones remain discoverable so long as you stay on that screen.
