What is the difference between the mesh network and the mesh functionality of BLE? Are there any limits we should be aware of? Why isn't there an optimal path?
Are there any issues with processing a large number of messages in a very large network? Have you tested the load on mobile phones when they relay messages in networks of this scope?
Can the limits on connections be disabled for specific devices? We want certain devices to act as relay nodes without limiting their queue or number of connections.
How does Bridgefy determine the proximity of phones? Does it use GPS coordinates or the SDK/native Bluetooth capabilities?
How are messages relayed based on signal strength? Does it necessarily correlate with proximity if one device has a stronger Bluetooth capability? </aside>
