Bug ID: 95327
Summary: Update app instructions
Product: Impress Remote
Version: 2.1.3
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Android app
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: my...@gmx.com
I was quite confused when using the application why it was not working (it
works fine now). There were two points where I got lost.
1) I thought the app would initiate bluetooth pairing as needed. The
instructions should suggest that you need to pair before using the remote
application.
2) The mobile application does not state that after enabling the remote on the
desktop PC, you need to restart the desktop software (all of LO). I spent quite
some time playing with bluetooth, and searching for why it did not work, until
I restarted LO, at which point it magically worked.
The instructions I am referring to are in the "Requirements" page of the
application. Specifically the text should include "restart all libreoffice
applications to take effect" (under "generic"). In the bluetooth section it
should say "A paired bluetooth connection to the target computer", or similar
(emphasising "pairing").
This could alternately be changed in the LO desktop version to clarify this (eg
via a popup dialog.
I am using version 2.1.3 downloaded from F-Droid.
Thanks - the remote is quite good!
