Hi @Robdonnelly, sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue! Since you are getting a message about the developer settings, please try running through the troubleshooting steps outlined here. We will need to make sure that the developer options are completely turned off. To turn off developer options:

Navigate to Settings section of your device > Developer Options
Toggle Developer Options off.

If you can’t see the Developer Options menu:

Tap About Device
Tap Build Number 7 times > you will see a prompt on the screen indicating developer options are enabled
Tap the back arrow to navigate back to Settings
Tap Developer Options > toggle Developer Options OFF.

If you are using a Huawei device, you can also try:

Go to the Settings of your Huawei device
Tap on More Settings
Disable the button Allow Hisuite to use HDB.

Once that's done, please try running through these steps:

Make sure the Square Point of Sale app and the operating software is up to date
Forget the reader from the device's Bluetooth setting
Turn the Bluetooth off and back on
Hard reset of reader -- hold button for around 20 seconds, wait for lights to turn orange, then red, then release the button when all the lights have stop flashing
Go back into the Square app > Settings > Card readers > Connect a reader and follow the prompt

Hopefully that will help!
