Access to location services required?
Android 6 and later requires access permission for the Connectivity app to access location services. Otherwise it can not scan for
the Bluetooth devices.
Besides permitting access to its data, the location services also needs to be enabled in many (but not all) cases.
Note that after enabling location services, the GPS itself can be switched off again: the Android location services are more than
GPS. Bluetooth and WiFi- scan results can technically also be used to approximate the devices location; hence these requirements.
Despite the text above, you can be sure that the Connectivity app is not interested in, nor tracking your location.
5.2 APPLE IOS IPHONES AND IPADS
The Connectivity app works on the following iPhones and iPads, which have Bluetooth 4.0 (BT LE) and iOS 8 or later, which is
required:
• Phone 4S and later (due to Bluetooth Low Energy support)
• iPad 3rd generation and later
Unfortunately Apple iPhone/iPad doesn't support USB OTG
