The problem with Bluetooth is that it's tough to know what version you have. It doesn't show up in the list of Bluetooth devices. You can't see the Bluetooth version on the device. There's no easy way to find out what version you have. This post will tell you how to find out what version of Bluetooth you have on your PC and smartphone.
To see which Bluetooth version is on your PC
To find out your LMP version, follow these steps:
- Type "device manager" in the search box on the taskbar and select it from the results.
- Expand the Bluetooth category by selecting the arrow next to it.
- Select the Bluetooth radio listing (it might be listed as a wireless device).
- Go to the Advanced tab, and look for the LMP (Link Manager Protocol) listing in the Firmware or Firmware version area. The number shown there is your LMP version.

To find the version of the Bluetooth Share app on your phone:

Note: This method may not work for everyone, so you should try the second method mentioned below. Also, make sure that your Bluetooth is turned on, as the version information is not displayed if it is not.
Method 2: Check the device Specs sheet
If you cannot find the version of your phone's Bluetooth using the first method, check the phone's specifications sheet. One reliable resource for this information is GSMArena, which has a comprehensive database of smartphone specs. To find the Bluetooth version of your phone, use this method:

- Look for the Bluetooth field in the specifications sheet.
- The version number listed there should be the version of Bluetooth on your phone.
It is the most reliable method for finding the Bluetooth version of your phone, as it is based on official information provided by the manufacturer.
