## Connecting Your Radio (BLE)
The app pairs with your MeshCore radio over Bluetooth Low Energy.
### Windows
On Windows 11 (tested on 25H2), pair the radio through the system Bluetooth menu **before** connecting in the app:
1. Open **Settings → Bluetooth & devices → Add device → Bluetooth**.
2. Select your MeshCore radio and complete pairing, entering the **PIN** when prompted.
3. Launch MeshCore SAR and connect — the radio now appears as a paired device.
If the radio does not show up or fails to connect in-app, remove it from the Windows Bluetooth menu and repeat the pairing step.
### iOS / Android
Connect directly from within the app — no separate system pairing step is required.
