True, the support for those seems to have been dropped in Qt6, without replacement: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtbluetooth-changes-qt6.html Notably the support was very limited to begin with though (and Windows was not included). So you'll need to rely on the system dialogues for entering the PIN as Ivan mentioned. This is probably how most OSes intend it - only allow PIN confirmation dialogues by specifically trusted components (eg. Android requires BLUETOOTH_PRIVILEGED permission). You may have more wiggle room on some operating systems, I think at least on Linux you can register your own system-wide pairing agent to play the "system dialogue" part.
