This was fixed in version 1.13.4

I am having an issue also when trying to use Bluetooth and RemoteXY on my iPhone. In the past I created a Bluetooth connection to an ESP 32 which worked fine. Now when I try to use it with a newer iPhone, I get the message that you describe.

The iPhone seems to communicate as expected with Wi-Fi where I use a soft Access Point. I haven't worked with this much lately and don't know what has changed concerning the Bluetooth situation.

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone else is having the same (kind of) issue as me. This is not a huge deal because it basically works - but I'm still constantly hitting the same aggravating snag and I would like to eliminate it.

FYI this is regarding app v1.13.3 on iPhone, registered as Pro, connecting to an ESP32 dev board) This issue did not occur at all when I first installed the app. Now it happens every time.

When I launch the app the first connection attempt always fails, with this error message:
"Bluetooth is not enabled. Go to iOS settings and turn on the Bluetooth."

BUT - Bluetooth _IS_ enabled. I can tap OK to dismiss that message and then immediately tap the same interface button and it will launch. After that initial failed connection, it always works perfectly - i can disconnect and re-connect with no issues until the app is shut down. Then after relaunching the app I will get the error again on the first connection attempt. This is perfectly repeatable.

Any thoughts ?
