keeping your phone unlocked while connected to it. When you disconnect or move out of
range, your phone locks again. Go to Settings > Security & location > Smart Lock >

when you're not connected to a device.

• Make or receive calls with a headset
• Make or receive calls and play music over your car's audio system
• Transfer music
• Share photos
• Share contacts
• Share your phone's internet connection with your computer
To set sharing options:
1. Go to Settings > Connected devices.
2. Do one of the following:
• For a currently connected device, touch the device name.
• For a paired device you're not connected to, touch Previously connected devices,
then next to the device name, touch .
3. Turn sharing options on or off.
4. On the paired device or in the device’s app, look for Bluetooth settings to review and
adjust. For more information, see the paired device manufacturer’s instructions.
