## Issues
- When using a Raspberry Pi 4B the connection drops after some time. Might be a hardware issue, since it works fine on my laptop. Using a different bluetooth adapter may help, but haven't tested it yet.
- Some bluetooth adapters seem to cause disconnects for reasons unknown, try to use an usb adapter instead
- Incompatibility with Bluetooth "input" plugin requires a bluetooth restart, see [#8](https://github.com/mart1nro/joycontrol/issues/8)
- It seems like the Switch is slower processing incoming messages while in the "Change Grip/Order" menu.
This causes flooding of packets and makes pairing somewhat inconsistent.
