About painlessMesh

Allows to connect from Android to a

painlessMesh network and act

like a node. The app can connect, request routing info (NODE_SYNC_REQUEST)

and send single (SINGLE) and broadcast (BROADCAST) messages. There is no

support for (TIME_DELAY), (TIME_SYNC) and (NODE_SYNC_REPLY). The app is

connecting to the closest painlessMesh AP.

Due to restrictions of Android, painlessMesh can not have AP and STA mode

running in parallel. Since Android 6 it requires the location service

permission from the user to be able to scan for Wi-Fi networks.
