I am trying to read from a bluetooth module connected to arduino Uno. My application is a simple counter where the values are displayed on the arduino and the android app. The problem is that my android application get readings for some time (40-50 sec) and then stop at a random reading. When I check on the arduino serial monitor, the counter keeps counting and doesn't stop. Can someone please help?
Note: Ignore the buttons that I created :D
