Passkey Size #88

Closed sampaioletti closed 8 months ago

Would it be worth adding documentation that the minimum passkey length is 6 digits for BLE

See here for reference https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?t=13124

So if you set a passkey to say '1234' the passkey will actually be '001234' I'm not sure if that's guaranteed or where that transform occurs, but that is how it currently works. I was struggling with it for a bit, may not be alone. (:

Yes, please.

FYI, I'm pretty sure the transform occurs when the number gets converted to u32 and then the u32 gets converted into bytes.

I also got confused when I found out that 1234 turns into "001234". You're not the only one.
