• Hi,
    I can connect to my Bangle from Intel Mac and from my android phone. But my M1 mac doesn't see it (it doesn't even show up on the list of available devices).
    I checked if there is nothing else connected (I turned other laptop off and made sure that Gadgetbridge is disconnected).

    Any idea how can I connect it to my mac?

    EDIT: I also restarted the watch several times, including without loading any code.

  • Have you tried restarting your M1 Mac, just in case?

    I've heard from M1 Mac users who can use Bangle.js just fine, so it's not that the M1 can't do it.

    HOWEVER something came up a few months ago with a new version of Mac OS that could be the issue. If when you first installed Chrome and it asked if it could have Bluetooth permissions (which could have been months ago!) you said 'No', Chrome won't be able to access Bluetooth devices, and I'm not sure Chrome even knows this is the case - it just doesn't see any devices. You'll need to go into the Mac OS permissions and choose to allow chrome to access Bluetooth before it'll work

  • I actually couldn't restart my mac because there were other users logged in. After restart, it works just fine.
    I feel really stupid now 🤦.

    Sorry and thanks for the quick response.
