# Hexoskin Device Having Trouble Staying Connected to Mobile Device

## If your Hexoskin Device keeps disconnecting from your phone or tablet, it may be due to range, placement, or interference. This article outlines key troubleshooting tips to improve Bluetooth connectivity.

---

### Ensure You’re Within Bluetooth Range

For best connectivity, your phone or tablet should remain within a **direct line of sight** and within approximately **10 meters (32 feet)** of the Hexoskin Device.

- Repeated disconnections can occur if the connection is obstructed or the signal is weak.

### Optimal Device Placement

Bluetooth signals can be blocked by the human body, especially if the device is placed vertically, loosely, or upside down.

To improve transmission and reduce disconnects:

- Insert the **Hexoskin Device horizontally** into the shirt pocket.
- The **cable should face upward**, and the **LED light should face outward**.
- This orientation helps:
  
    - Protect the connector inside the shirt
    - Maximize Bluetooth signal strength

### Minimize Bluetooth Interference

Some environments can interfere with Bluetooth connectivity, such as:

- Concrete walls
- Metallic structures
- Large crowds with multiple active Bluetooth or wireless devices
- Certain industrial or medical installations

If you're in such a space, try stepping into a more open area or closer to a window to test the connection.

### Additional Tips

- Make sure **Bluetooth is enabled** on your phone or tablet and that no other app is competing for control of the device.
- Ensure your **Hexoskin app is updated** to the latest version.
- Restart your mobile device and the Hexoskin Device if the issue persists.

If you have any other smartphones or tablets previously paired to the device within your vicinity, this may cause interference with your Bluetooth connection

If you're still having trouble after trying these steps, feel free to contact our support team at **support@hexoskin.com** for further assistance.
