Solving Bluetooth Thermometer Issues on Android 10

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a quick tip that might help others experiencing issues with their Govee Bluetooth Thermometer & Hygrometer after upgrading to Android 10. I recently upgraded my phone and noticed that my Govee app wasn’t monitoring temperature and humidity changes properly. It was a bit frustrating because I rely on these readings to maintain optimal conditions in my home.

After a bit of research, I found that Android 10 has stricter location permissions, which were causing the issue. I went into my phone’s settings, navigated to Govee Home, and adjusted the location permissions to “Allow all the time.” This small change made a big difference! Now, the app works perfectly, and I even get alerts when the temperature or humidity goes beyond my set thresholds.

I want to emphasize that Govee Home doesn’t collect or share location data, so adjusting these settings is safe and necessary for functionality. It’s always a relief to find a simple solution to what initially seemed like a bigger problem.

If anyone else is experiencing similar issues, I hope this tip helps. It’s amazing how these little tweaks can make such a positive impact on our smart home setups. Happy monitoring everyone! :thermometer::droplet:
