CONFIG_BT_SETTINGS

Store Bluetooth state and configuration persistently

Type: bool

Help

When selected, the Bluetooth stack will take care of storing (and restoring) the Bluetooth state (e.g. pairing keys) and configuration persistently in flash.

When this option has been enabled, it’s important that the application makes a call to settings_load() after having done all necessary initialization (e.g. calling bt_enable). The reason settings_load() is handled externally to the stack, is that there may be other subsystems using the settings API, in which case it’s more efficient to load all settings in one go, instead of each subsystem doing it independently.

Direct dependencies
