--- Comment #12 from k...@jason-wong.org ---
KDE Connect used to auto connect, but it doesn't auto connect anymore.
My desktop runs 24/7. In the past when as soon as I connect to wifi on the
phone I will get a notification on desktop from KDE Connect to say my phone has
connected.
But now, for the past maybe 18-24 months, it has stopped doing that. Now every
time I want it to connect to the phone I have to go into KDE Connect Settings.
Once in the settings then:
- sometimes the phone will "magically" be shown as connected and then I can
just click "Close"
- sometimes I have to use the "Refresh" button (maybe more than once) before
the phone will be shown as connected and then I can click "Close"
On the phone, battery optimisation etc is disabled for KDE Connect. This is
confirmed by the fact when phone is on standby I still get notifications going
both ways Desktop <-> Phone. Both ways, because eg if I pause a media player on
desktop, it sends a notification to the phone, phone displays notification and
same notification also pops up on desktop.
One thing I have noticed is that for KDE Connect to make the initial connection
to the phone, the phone has to be out of standby - it doesn't have to be
unlocked, eg if phone is in "enter PIN" screen, I can go to KDE Connect
Settings to connect to it. Once connected phone can be in standby and
notifications etc will continue to work normally.
