5.3. Android
With Android, a system-wide support of smart cards and card readers is not possible. In order to use AirID with a specific app, the AirID driver needs
to be integrated into this app.
The connection to the Android device is
active when the app
is open. As soon as the app goes into the background, the Bluetooth
only
in foreground
connection to the AirID is released again.
5.3.1. AirID system requirements
In order to use AirID with your Android device, the Android version 8.0 (API level 26) upwards is required. Furthermore, a Bluetooth Low Energy
functionality is necessary.
Due to the huge amount of variants of Android OS implementations, we can not guarantee the function of AirID SDKs and AirID devices with any
Android device. We are only supporting AirD2 in combination of the Enterprise Edition of Samsung Galaxy S8, S9 & S10.
In case of unstable AirID2 - Android connections please contact our support by creating a support ticket:

5.3.2. AirID Integration
There are two possible options for integration of AirID which can be used:
Complete integration of AirID driver and AirID Central functionality into the third party app
Only integration of AirID driver into the third party app and usage of AirID Central app in addition (interaction of the apps via keychain)
Depending on the form of integration, the Bluetooth pairing process will be done within the third party app (1.) or within the AirID Central app (2.).
For both option a smart card middleware within the third party app is required to use the smart card provided by AirID.
