[solved] Bluetooth not working on Nano ESP32

Hardware Nano Family Nano ESP32

I installed the IDE 2.1.1 and the Arduino Nano ESP32 on my computer (Windows 10) and got it working OK.
When I ran the bluetooth example bt_classic_discovery.ino from the Arduino Nano ESP32 examples I got this error message:
Compilation error: #error Serial Bluetooth not available or not enabled. It is only available for the ESP32 chip.
I thought this board is supposed to have bluetooth on it.
Are there any solutions to this problem?
Thanks.

Just new to this.

Hello @tonytscarpelli, the BluetoothSerial interface is indeed not supported on this board. To get started with Bluetooth LE on the Nano, you can begin from the examples in the "ESP32 BLE Arduino" section.

Thanks so much.
Some of this stuff is really difficult to figure out. So much to read.

Thanks again.
Actually got the board connected to my phone.
Now for the heavy work.
