Constantly losing BLE connection #18

In the B.B.Link app as soon as i move away from the page that shows the paired device the app reports that it has lost BLE connection. I am sure it hasn't.

E.G i connect my iPhone and TH-D75 and go to aprs.fi to send a message when i return to B.B.Link app it reports that it has lost the BLE connection

Setup: TinyPico with latest firmware built via Arduini IDE 2.3.2 and esp32 2.0.11 TH-D75 iPhone 14 Pro with IOS 17.4.1

It's by design. With BLE, there can only be one application connected. The B.B. Link configurator app is meant to only be run seldomly to setup pairing with a radio. When the app looses focus, it automatically disconnects so that another app (APRS.fi in your case) can connect.
