General description of control mode
Control mode is initiated from the phone. External applications running on the
phone can ask AHA to get control over the sensors, vibrations and LEDs on A1II.
However steps and sleep shall still be logged during control mode. The button
on A1II is not part of the API for control mode.
The user have to confirm in e.g. a popup when entering control mode.
TBD if
AHA or the external app should ask the user for permission.
Interrupting control mode
The user can long press the key to stop control mode, the external app can
then not take control over A1II again until the user has accepted it from the
phone.
Control mode can also be interrupted in the following cases, it is up to the
external app to decide if control mode automatically should resume after the
interruption, or if the user will have to confirm it.

A1II, how to end control mode and which SmartBand notification features will
TBD how AHA should handle control
mode requests from multiple apps,
require that the app runs in foreground?
