Similar to the WiFi Aware checker (#112), it would be good to have a tool to check Bluetooth hardware/software and set expectations for any given device.

I don't 100% know whats possible to check, or even if the Android OS allows this, but ideally we want to determine Android OS version and Bluetooth version.

Core functionality to return boolean of supported or not

  • Minimal UI to show current state
  • Added to tools entry page UI
  • Setup as a HealthMetricProvider so it can be checked remotely, this is especially valuable for customers who might not control devices (e.g. PoS re-sellers)

I did a little research, and it sounds like this might not be possible programmatically. If that's the case we can close this.

We can check bluetooth features and get make / model / android version information as a baseline, it will be imperfect but useful for debugging bluetooth support remotely.

After discussion, this fits best as an addition to the permissions health rather than its own tool. Renamed permissions health to something like "DeviceCapabilitiesChecker". The WiFi Aware checker also fits into that category
