- Post-Connection Data Reading: After the Connect action is successful, real-time data can be retrieved from the device using the Read or Notify process.
- Conditional Flow: By checking the connection status, data can be retrieved if the connection is successful, and the user can be notified if it is unsuccessful.
- Multi-Device Support: If the user needs to connect to multiple devices, a structure can be set up to connect to the dynamically selected device.
- Automatic Connection: When the application is opened, an automatic connection can be made to the defined device.
Technical Risks and Precautions
- Device Unavailable Error: If the device is not turned on or the application cannot find the device, the connection cannot be established. The user should be notified.
- Platform Compatibility: iOS and Android devices may behave differently depending on their Bluetooth versions. Compatibility tests should be performed.
- Connection Timeout: If a connection to the device cannot be established, the action should not enter an infinite wait state but should return an error after a certain period of time.
- Permission Missing: If the application does not have the necessary Bluetooth and location permissions, the connection process will fail. It is recommended to check BluetoothPermissionIsGiven beforehand.
