Hi,  
We want to make a homey app for our device which uses BLE. Our device requires bonding, which it requests. For example with a smartphone this works. Now I have 2 questions:

1. Does homey support bonding?
2. Can homey handle bonding requests, or must the request come from homey?

As far as I am aware, Homey does not support pairing or bonding.  
It might be worth asking on Slack as it is more likely someone from Athom will see it.
