App doesn't detect device even though bluetooth will connect and pair with it, also webbluetooth

Original post
I'm using a Polar Verity Sense. Having issues with connecting to your android app as well as staying connected to your webbluetooth page. When trying to scan via your app to bluetooth connect to my Verity Sense, it cannot detect it; But my bluetooth on my phone can and another monitor app can find it as well, but I'd prefer using yours! Also, the webbluetooth page has limited success, it does connect and work, but sometimes stops working and when I try to connect it gives me "GATT operation failed for unknown reason."

When using the webbluetooth access, sometimes it stops working as well, without showing any error

Just, stuck
Community Member12/12/2023, 1:04:49 AM
Then works again when connected
Community Member12/12/2023, 1:21:27 AM
This app is exactly what I want; I just need to find out why it doesn't work

Phone is a Galaxy S22+ Ultra
Community Member12/12/2023, 2:55:15 PM
Device is a Polar Verity Sense
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:39:37 PM
Try to disconnect them in the settings - in most cases this uses the only one available connection. So you should be able to find it after searching for it inside the HypeRate app :)
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:39:50 PM
Which settings
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:39:56 PM
Bluetooth on my phone?
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:40:30 PM
Yes
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:40:38 PM
Sec I'll try that right now
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:41:40 PM
Could be that the Device is turning itself off due to no contact to your skin - some chestbelts Do that.

Community Member12/12/2023, 6:42:38 PM
It's definitely not off
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:02 PM
Wtf - normally android should see the Device - we do nothing special in the web Bluetooth api
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:14 PM
Hmm
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:31 PM
I put it on just to be safe
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:35 PM
Scanning
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:52 PM
One interesting thing - could you try out WebBLE on your phone pls? I'm curious which results u get
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:43:59 PM
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:44:03 PM
Webble?
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:44:09 PM
Oh okay
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:44:10 PM
Sec
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:44:41 PM
Where do I get that
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:44:54 PM
It's the same URL as on pc
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:45:06 PM
This one
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:45:26 PM
Ah okay, just use it on phone?
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:45:32 PM
Yes pls :)
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:45:44 PM
Sure, sec
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:47:46 PM
Just gets stuck trying
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:47:49 PM
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:49:29 PM
Is it maybe missing permissions it's supposed to have?
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:50:01 PM
Hmm
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:50:47 PM
If so it won't be the HypeRate app - it would be your browser
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:51:31 PM
But both won't connect
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:51:33 PM
Hmm
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:52:29 PM
What's weird is it does work with other apps, it connects to polar flow and I tried pulsoid before as well
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:55:21 PM
It does work connecting to hyperate if I connect it via Bluetooth to my PC, with the webbth
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:55:34 PM
Er webble
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:55:36 PM
Sorry
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:55:44 PM
Hmm the WebBLE one is the most basic one 😅
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:55:48 PM
Yeah
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:56:04 PM
And I'd use it, however it doesn't want to stay connected to the webble on PC
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:56:13 PM
So I'm at a dead end
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:57:49 PM
It would be nice to know how the disconnect is caused Like is it a fault from your chestbelt or from your Bluetooth adapter 🤔
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:58:23 PM
Did you experienced the same problem with any other app?
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:58:37 PM
Nah, but other apps are working connecting to it on my phone
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:58:50 PM
I think it may have a bad signal to the Bluetooth on my PC
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:59:03 PM
So my main option seems to be the app to get it to work
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:59:26 PM
I see - and the android app doesn't even find the chestbelt - dang :/
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:59:40 PM
It's an arm band actually
Community Member12/12/2023, 6:59:41 PM
Sec
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:00:24 PM
Ah hmm - did Pulsoid have had the same problem? Like disconnecting after a certain amount of time?
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:00:37 PM
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:00:52 PM
No, but I'm using pulsoid via phone app
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:01:16 PM
Ye my question was regarding the phone app
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:01:27 PM
Nah, its stable
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:01:35 PM
🤔
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:02:00 PM
I tried factory resetting the device via Polar flow and updating it as well to current firmware
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:02:11 PM
<@186881714381914112> can we pls remove the android support for now from the website?
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:02:33 PM
Is your phone OS also on the newest version?
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:02:45 PM
Might not be
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:02:50 PM
I can see about updating it if not
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:03:12 PM
Ye that would be good - to make sure that even your phone is running the latest software
Community Member12/12/2023, 7:03:53 PM
Okay
Community Member12/12/2023, 11:05:16 PM
Getting back to you on this; It keeps doing small updates individually instead of all at once
Community Member12/12/2023, 11:05:30 PM
I'll come back to this tomorrow when it's fully updated and let you know if it works or not
Community Member12/12/2023, 11:05:36 PM
Thank you for your help so far
Community Member8/30/2024, 6:50:47 PM
If got the same problem, is there a fix to it by now ?
Community Member1/29/2025, 7:09:13 PM
Same here..
Community Member1/29/2025, 7:49:34 PM
