Not working on my Galaxy Note 5. Keeps dropping the connection and only sends messages back and forth through the UART module intermittently.

This app is very temperamental on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. I've been trying to stream quaternion data to my Feather M0 Bluefruit LE & the quaternion data in the app is very janky. That & the app claims a 10 Hz output, but in reality, the device on the other end only sees barely 1/5th of that.

It's pretty eh. I do appreciate all the functionality they packed into this app, but it's pretty unstable in my testing. I primarily use the neopixel functionality, which does not function properly with more pixels than originally initialized in the app, requiring you to tell it how many are connected every single time you start the functionality. I find the app also locks up when I unlock my phone to adjust a setting.

I just downloaded this app and within 5 minutes, I had it working with my adabox002. Adafruit is an amazing company, integrating hardware and software for a great end user experience. Thanks to Lady Ada and her whole team!

Doesn't work on Android or at least my Samsung note 9. Please put some work into making it work. Or a how to use it with your products. Thank you
