Bluetooth on iphone #33

Hi there,

i love the ranger. it solves a huge problem for me.

I just wanted to leave some experiences here:

  1. while on mac and ipad i could control my eve thermos (1. and 2. gen) on the iphone they showed up as not reachable. This stopped when i disabled bluetooth on the iphone. somehow the iphone wanted to reach them directly which it couldnt. i will keep track of this going fwd.
  2. ranger is much better than an unreachable thermo. but sometimes it is not repaonding fast enough for an automation to succeed. i pit in these automations three times every minute. works👍

Keep up the great work, Best from Berlin nils

Do you have experience with Eve Energy? My plug seems to be connected to my RPi via Homebridge, but the app says „not reachable“.

Switching BT off didnt help.
