Description

Add support for Bluetooth connectivity to allow seamless communication between the mobile client and the server/device without requiring Wi-Fi. This feature will enable users to connect directly over Bluetooth for situations where Wi-Fi is unavailable or unreliable.

User Story

As a user, I want to connect my device via Bluetooth so that I can control and use the application even without a Wi-Fi connection.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Ability to scan and list available Bluetooth devices.
  • User can select a device to pair/connect with.
  • Successful connection triggers confirmation in the UI.
  • Data can be reliably sent and received over the Bluetooth connection.
  • Automatic reconnection to the last paired device when available.
  • Proper error handling when connection fails or device disconnects.

Technical Notes

  • Research platform-specific APIs (e.g., Android BluetoothAdapter, iOS CoreBluetooth, desktop Bluetooth libraries).
  • Decide on the communication protocol (e.g., RFCOMM, BLE characteristics).
  • Ensure security and pairing requirements are handled (PIN, permissions).
  • Consider fallback to Wi-Fi if Bluetooth is not available.
