Hi, I want to download my program from MakeCode to the EV3 brick via Bluetooth. I have enabled the experimental features as stated on the following page. [https://makecode.mindstorms.com/bluetooth](https://makecode.mindstorms.com/bluetooth)

After I select Bluetooth when downloading, I click the “go ahead” button on the Bluetooth pairing screen. The following appears (see pic). I tried each of the serial ports. However, it says “Bluetooth download failed”. I have made sure the EV3 robot is fully charged, I am out of port view, etc.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
