The Phoenix inverter smart is the only device with integrated bluetooth as far as I am aware. Bluetooth is currently available on the Cerbo device used with a multiplus, but also with very limited functionality at this time. The bluetooth VE.Bus dongle alternatively can provide monitoring only functions on Multiplus systems. Not even a new Multiplus system will give you what you want as e.g. the multiplus-II GX also only offers wifi to my knowledge.

Depends on what you want to do via Bluetooth and how old your MultiPlus is.

You can add Bluetooth with the VE.Bus Bluetooth dongle but this needs at least a firmware 415. And as ejrossouw wrote it will only add some monitoring, to change settings you need a MK3 Interface.

As far as I know there are no plans to add Bluetooth to the MultiPlus in the near future.
