Tizen standalone-wearable-app with internet access

Is it possible to connect to the internet from a tizen-standalone-app on a wearable through the bluetooth connection?

Currently the internet access works with wifi but not with bluetooth. Are there settings for this or do we have to write an application for the phone too for accessing the internet?

Thank you

I found the answer. You need to check you phone and allow 'Blouetooth tethering' in Access Point Settings.

Tested on Gear S3 connected over bluetooth to my Nexus 5x (WiFi off)

Yes, it is possible to connect to the internet through a standalone app using bluetooth.

How to achieve this?

You need to change the setting in the Gear Manager. There is a setting avaiable within the gear manager where you need to switch on the option for sharing internet via bluetooth with the Gear, then your web app will be able to use the internet.

Click on the Settings option available under General Section. [Check attached image]
