So, questions. Does this require you to have Bluetooth turned on or does the OS/app turn it on in the background regardless of user setting? And will force stopping it prevent it from running in the background or is stopping it not possible (or it just restarts itself)?

(as someone who is not getting out much at present, would far rather have it only running when I go out, not running all day, every day for no good reason)
