Bluetooth 4.0 Scanner

They take the information you collect and sell it to businesses. No thanks, I don't work for free. They describe it as a 'community driven project' to imply it's some sort of open-sourced database that everyone can use like OpenStreeMaps, but no. They charge $799 or more a month to corporations and advertisers. Where's my cut of this money, since I did the work of collecting the data you're selling? Deceptive and quite likely deserve to be on the business end of a class-action lawsuit.

Gives you lat and Long of your item but doesn't have a map or actual tracker to help you find the item.

Fails to work without GPS signal. Of course all of your Bluetooth is GPS right?

I read it can help in finding misfit shine will it work for my shine 2 also?

Total trash doesn't work

Warning! Sharing over internet is enabled by default. That's why it asks for GPS access. Also, never worked for me.

Tell me why GPS needs to be on for use? If u cant then your as crap as this app.

not working in marshmallow mi s3

works fine on my galaxy s3, but GUI could be better.

Tracks my location. Why?

Worked perfectly for Xiaomi Mi 5s!

Does it work with samsung tab3 with bluetooth 3.0

UI should be improved

Haaaaaaaaaa

Horrible

Good

Will drain your battery in the background. It is unclear why the app even needs location services, so if you're on Android 5.0+, then you're better off denying the permission.

The ding, dong, darn app crashes, AND I tried many times to fix it, I even reinstalled it, but........NO WORKie- WORK FOR ME. I have henceforth, hitherto, forevermore, undeniably, unequivocally, irreversibly, reprehensible uninstalled the ding, dong, darn app, and wrote this dirty-bird review to tell you all about my ding, dang, darn, ditty-boo, dramatic experience. Good luck.

Problem permission with samsung galaxy s7 edge on screen overlay. No show list devices

Scanned for devices and I was able to get the Mac I'd for the device I was looking for

Helped me find my Fitbit when my cat stole it

Nothing works! DON'T DOWNLOAD!

Found my Misfit Shine after losing it in the yard.

Love it its LIT

When I first read the title I thought it was a scanning devices to connect. But it's more than that. I made my way to the settings and was a little trouble of what this app also does. It not just finds your device but also logs and uploads the location of your product to a server automatically. In the name of locating devices lost and so call help vendors distribute there products. It makes me wonder if the person behind the software is helping some agency locate you without your permission. Kinda creepy.

Finds JawBone UP2 - tried 8 different apps, and this is the only one that located my UP2. Only one other app even detected the UP2 name, but BlueScan can locate using the signal power (-dBW). The refresh is a little slow, and it would be better if you could select the device you're looking for from a list and then home in on just that one, but the fact is that the -dBW signal accurately allowed me to get within a few feet of my lost JawBone. Good work chaps!

Found my fitbit! Nice real time data. Though I made sure to turned off the updating to their servers for my device.

Very happy with the app. Not many instructions, but easy to work out that lower numbers = closer. Definitely a good app for the toolkit when you have a device that a dog might drop!

This app really saved peace of mind I was able to find my gear fit a very long distance away at my job using this app, I will admit it was a bit difficult at first but I was able to figure it out, sometimes I would get realtime results other times a ping. Connect than disconnect. Started at -100 than found my device at -50 bluetooth 4.0

It ruined my phone's Bluetooth! It just turns on and off indefinitely

Doesn't scan on my HTC 10 just sits there doing nothing

Found my up Where other app could not find it

No other app I tried today could find my BT devices except this app. Thanks.

Suck battery

didn't work

Useful app, but insists on keeping GPS active causing a large amount of unnecessary battery drain, as well as an invasion of privacy. This should be either disabled by default, or the user should be asked when the app is first launched. I agree with others that have stated this app should be banned because of this. It would also be nice to have a clean interface to view the RSSI for a selected device over time, too. I would happily rate 5 starts if these issues were to be resolved.

The " classical scan " blocks All wifi signals in the phones range. Bad if you forget to switch to the low level scan. But the low level scan used for bluetooth 4 works great

Gave me the general area to find my Misfit. I would have never found it without this app. The Misfit was attached to the bottom of my washer. Make sure to use "Low Energy Scan".

...doesn't seem to do anything on a Note5 but did find "something" when run on a Samsung Tab. ....difficult to determine what it found though. There does not appear to be a function that would allow one to re-scan after turning various BT devices on/off in order to try and determine what is what. You must stop and restart the app which clears the display which sort of defeats the purpose. Any thoughts on the Note 5?

No comment about the location services. I guess a plot of signal strength vs. Lat/Long could be useful. I just wandered around my living room watching the signal strength and homed in on my MisFit stuck to a tape gun inside a plastic storage tub.
