Hi Justin,

As we talked about by email, this adds a section at the end of the Bluetooth tracking page about room-level tracking, using your devices as Bluetooth proxies. It covers Bermuda and PadSpan: what each one adds on top of the proxy setup, what to set up first, and how to install both. There's also one sentence in the page intro that points to it.

To be upfront: I make PadSpan. Bermuda is a separate project by its own author (agittins).

Happy to change anything you'd like.

Walkthrough

The Bluetooth tracking setup guide now covers room-level tracking with Bermuda and PadSpan. It describes shared proxy and device prerequisites, setup steps, features, and how the integrations can be used together.

With proxies marking left and right.
Bermuda finds the nearest place,
PadSpan maps each room with grace.
Two tools can share the tracking race.}

Format the new prerequisites as a note admonition.

The "Before you start:" block is plain text followed by a numbered list. The style guide says to put must-not-miss information in an admonition, and it assigns note to prerequisites. Most other "Before you start" blocks in docs/ use !!! note "Before you start", so the same format fits this section.

Suggested fix

-Before you start:
-
-1. Put a proxy in each room you want to tell apart. One proxy is enough for home or away, but rooms need one each.
-2. Check that each Apollo device is in the right area in Home Assistant: open the device and set its **Area**. Both integrations use it as the room.
-3. Set up your phones once, because they keep changing their Bluetooth address. Add iPhones and Apple Watches to the **Private BLE Device** integration (see [Apple iPhone and Apple Watch](#apple-iphone-and-apple-watch) above), and on Android turn on the **BLE Transmitter** in the Home Assistant Companion app (see [Android](#android) above).

The repository's documentation rules require admonitions for must-know information and assign note to prerequisites.
