I can't get my iPhone to detect Home Assistant Voice PE

With Bluetooth on my iPhone and all permissions activated in the Home Assistant app, it does not detect the Bluetooth of the HA Voice PE. After several tests, the only device in the house that has detected it is a PC with Windows (not the HA server) and Bluetooth that detects it, but it is still impossible to connect. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I ran into a similar issue, and I found that Settings->Apps->Home Assistant had BT turned off, so I simply turned it on and it worked.

Similar problem but I’m unable to allow Home Assistant access to bluetooth on ios. Settings-> Privacy & Security-> Bluetooth only shows apps that have requested to use bluetooth and HA is not shown. Settings-> Privacy & Security-> Apps-> Home Assistant has no option to turn on bluetooth. I’ve reset Location & Privacy on my iPhone and there’s still no option to allow HA to use bluetooth. A bluetooth scanner does find the device. Thanks.

I ran in to the exact same problem, found this thread, did some additional troubleshooting and was just able to resolve it. I deleted the iOS app and reinstalled. I opened the app and gave it the various permissions, then when I clicked on Settings, Devices I got an additional prompt for Bluetooth access. I enabled this and it detected the Voice Assistant straight away.

Thank you!! Deleting and reinstalling worked :slight_smile:
