Absolutely not. Having to have a cellphone is a barrier. Having to have a specific app downloaded and actively doing Bluetooth work is a huge barrier.
Interesting solution, in theory, super shitty practically.

Also, imagine how insane it would be if a bear was following you and you couldn’t get in the door because you forgot or dropped your phone.

Why not just let the bear in

...but what if the bear has a cellphone?

Just use a normal, hand-operated door?

bears can grip stuff

I'd rather be the bear that isn't being tracked with Bluetooth beacons, than enter whatever shop that buus this, thanks.
