[most AsteroidOS watches] Not showing up in Bluetooth menu on iDevices #241

Description

Describe the bug
Based on a discussion in the Matrix channel as well as AsteroidOS/asteroidos.org#241 we found out that while generally the watches supporting AsteroidOS show up in the Bluetooth menu on iOS/MacOS while running WearOS, they do not show up while running AsteroidOS.
They can however still be discovered and paired on e.g. an iPhone using a 3rd party app like nRF Connect. As such we might wanna find out why they do not show up in Bluetooth settings by default.

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Own an Apple device like an iPhone
  2. Enable Bluetooth on your watch (e.g. `lenok``) running AsteroidOS
  3. Go to the Bluetooth settings on your iPhone
  4. The watch won't appear as a listed Bluetooth device

Expected behavior
The watch should show up as a listed Bluetooth device (at least if it would also do that when running WearOS)

Device (sample):

  • Watch Codename: lenok
  • AsteroidOS Builddate 2022-02-10
  • Version nightly

trying to pair with an iPhone 12 Mini running iOS 16.3.1

Additional context
