Android 14 - Samsung devices not detecting beacons in background

Open ecitulsky-ims opened this issue 5 months ago • 1 comments

When the app is in the background, and a beacon comes into range, app does not receive notification that beacon is present. The beacon can be around for quite a bit of time with no detection.

If I open up the system settings and navigate to BT menu, I can see the beacon. As soon as this happens, the app receives the notification the beacon is present. The Nordic Scanner library does not seem to be performing scans in the background at all.

NOTE: We have tested this on quite a few devices. It is most prevalent on Samsung but does occasionally occur on Pixel phones as well.
