BLE Scanner (Connect & Notify)

BLE Scanner is a popular application with over 10,00,000 downloads that aims to assist the Bluetooth community, developers, and users. It was created to aid developers in building BLE products and applications, but it has also become a useful tool for users looking to locate their lost fitness trackers and other Bluetooth smart devices. One of the main features of BLE Scanner is its ability to scan for nearby Bluetooth Low Energy, iBeacon, and Eddystone devices. It also allows users to create custom peripheral or advertiser modes, add custom services and characteristics, and advertise their phone as Eddystone UID, URI, TLM, and EID frames. Additionally, users can customize Eddystone configurations for UID, URI, and TLM, and even advertise their phone as a health device for heart rate, glucose, temperature, and blood pressure. The app also offers a unique radar view and device colors to help users locate their lost BLE devices in proximity. The RSSI Pool feature provides information on how far the devices are, with lower numbers indicating closer proximity. Users can also filter devices by name, MAC address, RSSI, and service UUID, and view a history of all discovered devices with their discovery time. They also have the option to export this data as a CSV file. Other useful features of BLE Scanner include the ability to favorite devices, explore services and characteristics of connected devices, and perform read, write, notify, and indicate functions. Users can also check device compatibility for BLE, write more than 20 bytes of data, give logical names to their devices, and copy MAC addresses and raw data. The app also offers a graph to show RSSI values and the option to export this data as a CSV file. Users can even scan QR codes with the app. However, there is a known issue where Android phones advertising as peripherals may have trouble connecting to iOS devices, but can easily connect to other Android devices. To stay updated on the latest news and updates for BLE Scanner, users can follow the app on Facebook and Twitter. They can also contact the developers for any comments, questions, or suggestions via email or by visiting their website.
