One of the aspects of this pairing is that it can often be a little buggy or riddled with signal issues. This is mainly because the mobile pairing takes place over Bluetooth, which chews up your mobile battery while delivering a less than perfect signal between your phone and wallet.

Even if this is was your experience when onboarding, you can simply wait around when it comes to the connection, as the wallet automatically approves the connection after some time.
