Hi! I tested the Bluetooth connectivity on a Linux Mint PC and it works great.
I have one question: what’s the proper way to exit a Contact session with a connected Bluetooth node?

Pressing Esc closed the CLI interface, but the application stayed connected and didn’t return to the terminal prompt.

Interesting. Honestly I'm not sure I've every tried using Contact with Bluetooth. I'll have a look eventually...

Hi, in fact I found it quite useful - the laptop is far away from the node and the Contact is up and running

Finally got around to testing ble. I can reproduce this bug with Meshtastic CLI commands so I don't think it's something I can fix in Contact. The issue is with the python library. I did discover that I can exit to the prompt hitting Ctrl-C.
