What's the difference between a Bluetooth credential and a Mobile App credential? When would you use one or the other?
A Bluetooth credential allows an appropriate Reader to receive the credential through Bluetooth transmission in a short radius from a mobile device.
A Mobile App credential allows a user to tap-and-hold a Device in the App to unlock/activate the Device.
