# deviceInquiryDeviceFound(_:device:)

```
optional func deviceInquiryDeviceFound(_ sender: IOBluetoothDeviceInquiry!, device: IOBluetoothDevice!)
```

## Parameters

`sender`

Inquiry object that sent this delegate message.

`device`

IOBluetoothDevice that was found.

## Discussion

A new device has been found. You do not need to retain the device - it will be held in the internal storage of the inquiry, and can be accessed later using -foundDevices.
