Abstract
Systems and methods for auto-pairing using a plurality of protocols are described. One embodiment of a system includes an environment computing device that includes a Bluetooth low energy (BLE) hardware component for facilitating communication via a BLE protocol. The environment computing device may also include a Bluetooth classic hardware component for facilitating communication via a Bluetooth classic protocol and a memory component that stores logic. When the logic is executed by the environment computing device, the environment computing device may establish, via the BLE hardware component, a BLE connection with a user device, may receive a message via the BLE connection to turn on a Bluetooth classic discover mode, and may establish a Bluetooth classic connection with the user device.
