About Bluetooth LE Scanner

This is a demo application to show the use of the Bluetooth LE library.

I allows you to scan and obtain information about Low Energy Bluetooth Devices in your vicinity.

The library allows for easy access to a Bluetooth LE device's Advertisement Records.
It also offers:

* A simple running average RSSI reading keeping.
* For iBeacons: Manufacturer data record parser.
* For iBeacons: Distance indicators (Near, Far, Immediate, Unknown).
* For iBeacons: A decently inaccurate (due to real world issues) distance approximation.
* All the new object types are Parcelable.

This will only work on Android 4.3 (API Level 18).

Does what it says. And that is it. It finds BLE signal. That's all needed. With band strength. Excellent app. Small and simple.

Don't bother if you're trying to look for your fitness band or UE Megabooms. I had the two things right next to my phone as it scanned, it cannot find it. Great if it works for you but for now i suggest don't lost your stuff.

It wouldn't connect with my Bluetooth headset right next to me

T70%
by T####:

IMO this app beats BLE Scanner in interface design and features. One big problem I had as a peripheral developer with BLE Scanner was the lack of viewing AD packets. Bluetooth LE Scanner does that and provides a much better interface for viewing characteristics. Best BLE utility app I've used so far.

T70%
by T####:

It just works. The kind of app you tell your friends about when they misplace their stuff. This thing seriously just made me happy. How many utility apps for that? Too bad they haven't updated in a few years. It maay be on its last legs.

Just worked. Several other apps were just sending LL_CHANNEL_MAP_REQ and never read the services and characteristics available.

E70%
by E####:

I have been using this app to scan BLE devices, but it didn't work anymore after upgrading to Android 6 on my Nexus 5.

B70%

Ble connectivity reconnecting when mobile screen auto rotate is enabling.

S70%
by S####:

It dropped a 0 from the UUID of ao beacon I scanned. For instance, if my UUID was ajdch42hvd-082h-hsbko3dbd-837k the app reported ajdch42hvd-82h-hsbko3dbd-837k. Nice interface though.
