Does 4200x player have bluetooth
My iPhone 13 needs to use Bluetooth with it’s personal hotspot. Does my Roku 4200x support this? Cannot find a way to do this
Forum Discussion
No Roku device supports a network connection through Bluetooth. I'm not an Apple person, but I've never heard of a hotspot that requires Bluetooth. The whole idea of a hotspot is to share a cellular network connection through Wi-Fi.
Recent Android/iOS devices/software versions allow Hotspot/Tethering via several methods, including WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, and Ethernet (doable since these are all simple P2P connections...). Bluetooth isnt required, but it is an option.
You'll need to use WiFi for the HotSpot (or USB/Ethernet tethering, with a USB to Ethernet adapter):
"You can use your phone's mobile data to connect another phone, tablet, or computer to the internet. Sharing a connection this way is called tethering or using a hotspot. Some phones can share Wi-Fi connection by tethering. Most Android phones can share mobile data by Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or USB."
