smartphone. For instance, this section shows whether NFC or Bluetooth have been activated.

corresponding "Use Bluetooth" option.

"Hands-free mode" and "Unlocking from notifications"). In this case, the home screen when
you open the AirKey app is "Bluetooth components".

If you deactivate the "Use Bluetooth" option, the three aforementioned associated functions
are automatically deactivated and all other Bluetooth-based functions from the main menu
("Bluetooth components", "Office mode" and "Encode media") include the "Bluetooth
deactivated" note. With this configuration the smartphone can exclusively communicate with
locking components using NFC.
If the Android smartphone is older and features NFC, but not Bluetooth
functionalities, all Bluetooth-based functions and settings are greyed out.
