Bluetooth Visibility Fix

Bluetooth Visibility Fix can automatically switch your bluetooth visibility settings when a connection is established or disconnected.

- changing visibility state when a device was successfully connected

- changing visibility state after the device has been disconnected

- changing visibility state for multi-pairing via the apps interface

- limit bluetooth visibility to known devices

In addition to automatic visibility changes, there now are options to automatically turn bluetooth off when a device disconnects (immediately on disconnect or delayed, only turning off bluetooth if no reconnect occurs) and the option to select an app to launch when a bluetooth connection is established.

This allows you to limit your bluetooth communication to the exact amount you require. Searching for devices and keeping visibility on while a device is already connected wastes energy and may degrade your connection. While streaming audio this can be hearable as short stops or clicks(detected and tested on some Xiami / MIUI devices).

Additionally keeping your bluetooth visible and connectable all the time can be considered a privacy and security flaw advertising your device via bluetooth to all your surroundings even if you already have an established connection.

Notice 1: This app is mainly working passively in the background, requiring minimal amounts of energy. To allow the app to function, energy saving measures may have to be limited or disabled for the app. On Xiaomi, Oppo,.. devices the Auto-Start Option has to be checked. To launch an app when Bluetooth Visibility Fix is in the background further permissions (opening a Pop-Up/Window from Background) have to be granted, there are two permissions on MIUI devices for this option.

Notice 2: When entering System Settings - Bluetooth or start Bluetooth via the Toggle in the Notification Bar the visibility state of the device will be reset by the system. This can be mitigated by starting Bluetooth via Bluetooth Visibility Fix.
