In order to connect you need to give the permission to the app for Location data, enable Bluetooth AND also switch on location services (GPS) on your phone. Took me a while to realize this third prerequisite, thanks for the help to the Yamaha Customer Support.

Problems connecting to the app, on both ios and android. Shame you can't connect via your Mac or PC, very disappointed with the hit or miss connection, real shame it needs a rethink.

Not connecting via Bluetooth with Pixel 2, although it's on the list of recommend phones (I've tried with Android ver. 9, 10 & 11). Just bought YDS-150 and such disappointment since the beginning of using it. At this moment don't recommend buying instrument unless you don't care about connecting to this app.

Samsung S10 and YDS-120 doesn't connect. Very disappointing!
