  Is bluetooth low energy mode related to bluetooth range option?

  Would it be possible to have a bluetooth mode without location rrequirement?

  Hello,

  1. If you mean distance range, BLE and BT have the same values: max 100 m (free field).

  2. if you follow the link in the topic first message, you will find that currently it is not allowed for Android-based devices. There is no need to turn On Location on iOS devices to operate Aranet4 app.

  In the aranet4 app there is an option "bluetooth range" with 2 options : "normal" or "extended".

  What do they do?

  Thank you

  Extended Bluetooth range means higher transmitter power.
