Abstract
This application relates to the field of short-range wireless communication technologies, and discloses a Bluetooth pairing method. The method includes: when a terminal receives a first operation of a user, the terminal sends an inquiry request to a Bluetooth device, where the inquiry request is used to obtain a Bluetooth address of the Bluetooth device. When receiving the inquiry request, the Bluetooth device sends an inquiry response to the terminal, where the inquiry response includes the Bluetooth address of the Bluetooth device. The Bluetooth device sends an extended inquiry response to the terminal, where the extended inquiry response includes a device name of the Bluetooth device. After receiving the extended inquiry response, the terminal displays the device name of the Bluetooth device. In this way, the terminal can reduce a time consumed by the terminal in a process from discovering the Bluetooth device to pairing with the Bluetooth device.
