AC180P. Bluetooth authentification or disabling Bluetooth

Hi @SpareJoe , I have informed your request to the engineers. However, our product development team needs to discuss its feasibility.

I know that when my ipad is connected to it through Bluetooth, my iphone can’t. It can only connect through wifi.
It seems only one device at a time can use Bluetooth to connect to it. While that doesn’t make it as secure as with a password, nobody else should be able to connect to it. Of course, if you’re away from home with your bluetooth device, then that could be a problem.
.
One workaround would be to pick up some cheapo phone/tablet that will stay connected to it with bluetooth, and leave that device close to the AC180P. You’ll be using wifi anyway if you’re away from home. I’m a packrat and still have my old iphone, using it as a clock by my TV, so I could secure my system by letting it stay connected to the old iphone with bluetooth.

Hello, is it so difficult to add such an item to the firmware for the AC180P station?

If you cannot see the menu that allows you to set up Bluetooth connection password in your app, you may create an bluetti account and add your AC180 to your account. Then you may see the Bluetooth connection password menu in your app, which is not available when the offline connection with AC180 is used.

@scott1976 It doesn’t work with older stations. If yours has this feature, it doesn’t mean all stations have it.
