Clover Mini - tethered mode

Hi, since our app's flow is modified depending on the Clover device type and current device mode, we would like to detect whether a Clover Mini device is in Customer Facing mode or Merchant Facing Mode. Is this possible through Clover SDK? Could it be accomplished through detection of whether a Clover Mini device is Tethered at a certain moment (maybe listening for a Tethered event broadcast)? Is there any function/method within Clover SDK that returns whether a Mini device is Tethered?

Thanks

Could you elaborate on your use case? What will you do with the information that the device is tethered, or not?

You can use com.clover.sdk.util.CustomerMode.getState() which returns ENABLED or DISABLED.

Note however that while the mini is tethered, this will return ENABLED, ENABLED does not necessarily mean it's tethered. We don't have any flag that indicates it's tethered.
