Abstract:
A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and apparatus for connecting a mobile device with an output device are disclosed. The method may be performed by a processor of a pairing server. For example, the method receives a request to connect the mobile device of an authenticated user to the output device, identifies the mobile device in a database comprising a register of authenticated users and one or more mobile devices of each one of the authenticated users, and transmits a configuration information and a connection information to the mobile device, wherein the configuration information causes the mobile device to modify a configuration of the mobile device and automatically connect to the output device based on the connection information.
