How do I setup?

cyrils commented 1 year ago

You can use the demo page here for testing purposes.

For your personal use, you can do it in two ways:

  1. Download the source code and open index.html in your chrome browser
  2. Host the page in your website and load index.html in chrome

When I press on select device nothing happens. What could be causing it or how do I? Okay three different mobile browsers for Android and no luck.

cyrils commented 1 year ago

Its currently not supported in android, probably because of this chromium issue. You could try giving fine location access to chrome as discussed here.

I'm trying Chrome on my MacBook pro and still can't click to bring up the Bluetooth adapter. I'm also hosting it on a raspberry pi 3b+. Is there any way you can update it for the raspberry pi 3b+.

Make sure your macbook is close to your bluetooth adapter. Please note this is a completely browser side application, where you host the code does not really matter. If you are looking for server side solution for your pi, take a look at renogy-bt1

Does the browser show an empty prompt or nothing happens when clicking on Search?

Found out that raspberry pi doesn't see the Bluetooth module version 1. Raspberry pi is up to date. Shows the button to click on and nothing happens. I know the script works on my MacBook pro but nothing else. I would prefer not to keep my laptop open 24/7 would prefer to use a little credits card size computer. I tried your other script the one for the pie zero and I get all kinds of errors. When clicking on the prompt nothing happens.
