pi zero 2w and bluetooth

[TheOldPresbyope]

I can establish a working Bluetooth connection from my Pixel 6a phone (Android 14) to a Pi 5 running a testing version of moOde 9.1.5 with a 6-digit PIN enabled. I can’t with my iPad. 

Seems to me I saw this Android-vs-iOS issue when the PIN feature was introduced but I’ve lost track of what I did then to try to diagnose it.
