RICOH THETA Bluetooth SDK - theta-ble-client

I got this question from the community. Is it possible to use bluetooth without using Wi-Fi at all?

I found this in the API documentation (here): “RICOH THETA authenticates a central device via Web API and Bluetooth API. The camera does not use pairing.”

To me that sounds like you need Wi-Fi to set up bluetooth. Has anyone set up bluetooth without using Wi-Fi?
