**Fixing connection bug in `pygatt`!**: The latest version of `pygatt` can throw an error on Windows and macOS when trying to connect to a device (see [here](https://github.com/peplin/pygatt/issues/118)). To avoid it, we need to add a simple line of code to the file `bgapi.py`. First, find the folder where that file is by running the following in a terminal:

```
python
import os
import pygatt
print(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(pygatt.__file__), 'backends', 'bgapi', 'bgapi.py'))
```

Then, add the following to line 191 of `bgapi.py` and save:
```
time.sleep(.25)
```

This should fix it!

__*__ The way to open a terminal depends on your OS. On Windows, press <kbd>Windows</kbd> + <kbd>R</kbd>, type `cmd`, and then press <kbd>Enter</kbd>. On macOS, press <kbd>Apple</kbd>+<kbd>spacebar</kbd>, type `terminal`, and press <kbd>Enter</kbd>. On Ubuntu, <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>alt</kbd>+<kbd>T</kbd> will open a terminal.
