Description

Discover nearby Bluetooth peripherals and inspect their services for information and characteristics.

• View information and signal strength for all peripherals and devices, updating in real time as you move around.

• Get battery level for your own Apple devices (signed into the same primary iCloud account) — no need to install the app on all your devices.

• See model identification broadcast by devices around you, mapping the Apple device identifier to the marketing name.

• Extract software and firmware version strings from devices broadcasting this information.

• Read any characteristic's value, even for services not well known and are custom to the device being interrogated.

• Write characteristic values back to the peripheral as string, numeric or hex (pro).

• See a history of the value of a characteristic since the session started, timestamped to when the value changed (pro).

• Log found peripherals, services, characteristics and values, and export a .log file of timestamped events for your analysis (pro).

• Shortcuts integration with actions for scanning and interrogation, enumerating services and characteristics, and reading values (pro).
