Why Android asks for location for Bluetooth

App and Android

In some Android versions, Bluetooth scanning requires location or nearby device permissions. It does not mean VinApp wants to know where you train.

Recommended steps

  • Enable location if Android requires it to search for sensors.
  • Grant nearby devices or Bluetooth permissions if they appear.
  • Restart VinApp after changing permissions.
  • Search for sensors from the app.
  • If you do not want location always enabled, you can enable it only when connecting.
  • If sensors do not appear, also review battery saving.
