3. Compatibility notes on phones and tablets
3.1 Android Devices
2.2 Changing the Bluetooth PIN code
If connection was not successful please refer to section 9. Troubleshooting below.
Note: Always connect from within the Go Power! ConnectTM app. Do not connect from the device's system menu
because the app will not find your Go Power! product.
To prevent unauthorised connections to your device we recommended you change the PIN
code. Avoid using obvious PIN codes such as 111111 or 123456.
To change the PIN code: First complete your connection; then go to the Product Info page. To access
that page, click the button on the upper right. For some products it will be the settings icon: .
After opening that menu press , and click Product Info.
For other products you'll find the button on the upper right, which takes you straight to the
Product Info page.
Android 6 and later requires access permission for the Connectivity app to access location services.
Otherwise it can not scan for the Bluetooth devices.
Besides permitting access to its data, the location services also needs to be enabled in many (but not
all) cases.
Note that after enabling location services, the GPS itself can be switched off again: the Android
location services are more than GPS. Bluetooth and WiFi- scan results can technically also be used to
approximate the devices location; hence these requirements.
Despite the text above, you can be sure that the Connectivity app is not interested in, nor tracking your location.
Access to location services required?
