Trying to use ESPHome and the Android companion app for simple home/away presence. ble_tracker doesn't see anything

As the title states, I don’t see anything in the bluetooth proxy logs about the ble transmitter from my phone. What am I missing?

Did you set it up?

I’m just watching the ESPHome logs and don’t see it detecting anything.

Please share your config and logs.

Not really much to see I don’t think.

Nothing really in the logs either. Just shows its scanning occasionally, but never finds anything.

How have you set this up in HA? My bluetooth proxies do not show connections to my ble sensors in the esp log but they transmit data to HA anyway.

This sounds like my issue. Do I just need to set up the Bluetooth LE Tracker - Home Assistant as @nickrout suggested then?

If you want to use the tracker, you have to set it up as I already pointed to.

Is that really the best way to do it? I thought known_devices was deprecated?

To see ble devices found in the scan in your esphome logs, you may need to change the logger level, as per the set-up docs.

@flyize did it work after all? Same issue
