This may have been covered already but has anyone with a later model android  having trouble getting it to pair with the Bluetooth?
My daughter has had a problem in her Accent since upgrading to a Samsung S7. I have had the same problem in my Corolla with a Google Pixel.
Web search seems to suggest it's an issue.
Anyway, I fixed it if anyone has the same problem.

Sorry.
The problem manifests itself by not actually pairing even when it says it is.
Put the phone into developer mode and it'll pair.
Apparently there's no issue with leaving it in that mode.

With thanks to my son who had the problem with his Kona and the local dealer had no idea, even after reference to HA.
