Automatic reconnect not working or delayed

• [X] I searched for similar bug reports and found none was relevant.

What happened?

If connection to GadgetBridge is lost, the watch stays disconnected.

What should happen instead?

The watch should automatically reconnect when back in phone's range.

Reproduction steps

1. Securely pair PineTime with GadgetBridge
2. Place phone somewhere and walk away until Bluetooth disconnects
3. Walk back to phone and wait

More details?

I have been using an AmazFit Bip with Gadgetbridge before with the same phone and reconnection was quite reliable. That is why I believe it is a watch-specific problem.

One can force GadgetBridge to reinitiate the connection either manually or by enabling "auto reconnect to device", which should not be necessary.

Version

1.10.0 (release)

Companion app

GadgetBridge 0.70.0 (F-Droid)

If you want automatic reconnection, why aren't you enabling the specific option for it in Gadgetbridge?

InfiniTime can also not control if and when the companion decides to connect.

Wow, that was rough. Thanks for the feedback.
