  <title>Control sharing over Bluetooth</title>

  <p>You can allow access to your <file>Downloads</file> folder for Bluetooth
  file sharing, and also restrict that access to only <em>trusted devices</em>.
  Configure <gui>Bluetooth Sharing</gui> to control access to the shared folder
  on your computer.</p>

  <note style="info">
    <p>A Bluetooth device is <em>trusted</em> if you have <em>paired</em>, or
    connected your computer to it. See
    <link xref="bluetooth-connect-device"/>.</p>
  </note>

  <steps>
    <title>Allow files to be shared into your <file>Downloads</file> folder</title>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-terminology">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <gui>Sharing</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click on <gui>Sharing</gui> to open the panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>If <gui>Sharing</gui> is <gui>OFF</gui>, switch it to
      <gui>ON</gui>.</p>

      <note style="info"><p>You can <link xref="sharing-displayname">change</link>
      the name your computer displays to other devices.</p></note>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select <gui>Bluetooth Sharing</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Switch <gui>Save Received Files to Downloads Folder</gui> to
      <gui>ON</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>If you only want to allow trusted devices to access your
      <file>Downloads</file> folder, switch
      <gui>Only Receive From Trusted Devices</gui> to <gui>ON</gui>.</p>

      <note style="tip">
        <p>This option is disabled by default. You should enable it if you want
        to prevent access to your shared files by anyone with a
        Bluetooth-enabled cell phone or similar device nearby.</p>
      </note>

    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui style="button">Close</gui>. Bluetooth-enabled devices will
      now be able to send files to your <file>Downloads</file> folder.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <note style="important">
    <p><gui>Files</gui> allows you to launch the <gui>Sharing</gui> panel
    directly by clicking the <gui>Preferences</gui> button when you visit the
    <gui>Downloads</gui> folder.</p>
