# onDeviceSelectionRequired

Canonical page: https://docs.ovok.com/native-sdk/guide/components/bt-management/bt-provider/on-device-selection-required

When `autoConnect` is enabled, the manager waits for its settle interval. It connects the only candidate automatically. If more than one accepted device is found, it calls `onDeviceSelectionRequired` with the candidates and a `select(device)` function.

~~~tsx
<BTProvider
  {...providerProps}
  autoConnect
  autoConnectDelayMs={700}
  onDeviceSelectionRequired={({ devices, select }) => {
    setPendingDeviceSelection({ devices, select });
  }}
/>
~~~

Call the supplied `select` function with one of the candidate objects after the user chooses. It connects that candidate and rejects if the device was forgotten before the selection was applied. Do not call `connect` on every candidate.

Use [BluetoothDevicePicker](/native-sdk/guide/components/bt-management/bluetooth-device-picker/) to render the candidates. If the app does not provide this callback, multiple candidates are not automatically selected.
