Hass.io and Bluetooth

I am using Hass.io .76.0 and I cannot get my bluetooth to detect my iPhone 8+, any suggestions?

did you manage to find a solution? I randomly got this error and it stopped working ever since…

Reboot the host, the issue isn’t Hassio. That did it for me, a homeassistant restart will not be enough (RP3B+).
