This is not crucial to how I intend to use the phone but it could be handy so I dropped support an email about it.

Well I already hit some bugs with the WiFi hotspot. Firstly the password setup is off-by-one, i.e. if I set the password to "PasswordOne", I cannot connect with "PasswordOne". If I then set it to "PasswordTwo" I cannot connect with "PasswordTwo" but I can connect with "PasswordOne".

However once setup and connected, I still cannot connect to the internet. Here is what I see if I connect from an Android device. Its the same kind of deal trying to use any other device.

Error message from Android about lack of internet access after connection.

Ok, well I can take photos, so … yeah. That is good then.

Feels correct to do my first photo as a #WristCheck 😉

A field watch with a black dial and numerals for 12 and 24 hour. Along with numbered minutes at every 5 intervals. On a green rubber strap. On a fairly hairy wrist. In the background you can see the edge of a book and a steel counter top. Taken with a Lightphone III

I logged bugs with Lightphone via their email support but also opened a thread on Reddit for my networking troubles thus far
