Good quesitons, checking in to this and will get back to you

Thank you @kindred solar

Just FYI, I tried to "ping" the card reader every hour using discoverReaders through discoveryMethod: 'bluetoothProximity' to keep it active, but it seems it's not working. I don't know

[kindred solar]

Gotcha, my colleague is still looking in to this but they did point out that readers automatically come out of standby mode when they see activity. Is that not working for you or is it especially slow?

[fathom oriole]

Sometimes after a long period of inactivity it didn't come out even with Stripe creating the payment intent

So that's why I tried to ask

[kindred solar]

Gotcha, and when that happens do you get an error? Like do you know what your code is calling and what happens when the reader does not respond?

[fathom oriole]

No errors

I just usually close my app and reopen

So I connect the card reader again and it works, but I can pass that along to my clients

This is a great question. When I get my Expo 50 working, I will also need to keep the reader on at all times while connected to power.

[kindred solar]

Gotcha, unfortunately not sure how to address that at the moment without specifics of what behavior your code is seeing. I would recommend adding logging there to see what happens

Do you have your Stripe code for whatever you are calling that is stalling when the reader is left alone for too long?
