About Beacon Scanner

This app will scan for beacons near you! ✌️

For all Beacons:
* The type of beacon (iBeacon, AltBeacon, Eddystone or RuuviTag)
* The approximation of the distance with the beacon (this is based on the RSSI value received and is NOT accurate)
* The beacon address and manufacturer code
* The RSSI and TX values
* The last time the beacon has been seen

For iBeacons and AltBeacons:
* UUID
* Major
* Minor

For Eddystone-UID beacons:
* NamespaceID
* InstanceID
* TLM data sent if any

For Eddystone-URL and RuuviTag
* Clickable URL
* TLM data sent if any

For RuuviTag:
* Air Pressure
* Temperature
* Humidity

It can display several frames emitted by a single beacon, allowing you to see if a beacon emits multiple frames types (for example radius network beacons can emit iBeacon and AltBeacon at the same time)!

* You can also log the scans of the beacons to an endpoint via a HTTP POST request.

The code is open source and available here ????

Good

Needs the ability to name tags, for example to display the location of it instead of only the distance to it. Even a local id-to-name map would be super useful, even if it isn't written to the tag.

Instant reaction: looks great. How's he do that!

Y70%
by Y####:

Cool and useful app. Previously I said distances were off by a factor of 100. I poked around and found the beacon was misreporting its transmit power level. (It's received at a higher power than the beacon claims it's transmitting.)
