Full description
⭐ Discover, Connect & Analyze Bluetooth LE Devices. BLE Scanner is a powerful Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) scanner and analyzer designed for developers, IoT engineers, QA testers, students, and anyone working with Bluetooth devices. Whether you're developing an IoT product, testing a BLE sensor, troubleshooting a Bluetooth connection, or searching for nearby Bluetooth devices, BLE Scanner provides professional tools to simplify Bluetooth communication and accelerate development. Quickly discover nearby BLE devices and view detailed information including device name, MAC address, RSSI (signal strength), manufacturer data, service UUIDs, characteristics, and device capabilities. Real-time scanning continuously updates nearby devices, helping you monitor signal changes and identify peripherals with ease. ⭐ Powerful Bluetooth Scanner with Live RSSI Scan and discover Bluetooth LE devices in seconds using a fast, reliable, and continuously updating RSSI. Filter devices by name, MAC address, or service UUID to quickly locate the exact device you're looking for. Whether you're testing smartwatches, fitness trackers, ESP32 modules, Nordic nRF development boards, Silicon Labs devices, medical equipment, smart locks, industrial sensors, or any BLE-enabled hardware, BLE Scanner helps you identify and connect to devices instantly. ⭐ Advanced GATT Explorer Explore Bluetooth GATT services, characteristics, descriptors, and UUIDs through an intuitive interface. Read characteristic values, write supported characteristics, enable notifications, inspect descriptors, and analyze BLE communication without writing custom debugging tools. ⭐ Upload BLE Data to Your Own Cloud Take your BLE projects beyond local testing by streaming scanned Bluetooth device data directly to your own cloud platform. With a Premium Subscription, BLE Scanner can automatically upload BLE scan data to your server using HTTP/HTTPS REST APIs or MQTT. Device information is transmitted in a structured JSON format, making it easy to integrate with dashboards, cloud platforms, analytics engines, monitoring systems, databases, or custom IoT applications. 👉 This feature is ideal for: • IoT product development • Industrial monitoring • Remote BLE device monitoring • Asset tracking systems • Research and data analysis • Custom cloud dashboards Instead of manually exporting scan results, automatically send real-time Bluetooth data to your own infrastructure for continuous monitoring and analysis. ⭐ Custom BLE Advertising & Virtual Peripheral Transform your Android phone into a fully configurable Bluetooth Low Energy peripheral for development and testing. Create custom BLE advertising packets, define your own GATT services and characteristics, and broadcast your phone as a BLE device. This powerful feature allows developers to simulate Bluetooth hardware before manufacturing a physical prototype, reducing development time and simplifying firmware validation. Whether you're developing custom BLE hardware, testing a mobile application, validating firmware, or demonstrating Bluetooth functionality, the virtual peripheral helps you emulate real BLE devices without additional hardware. 👉 Perfect for: • Mobile application testing • Hardware prototype validation • IoT product development • QA and production testing • Software simulation before hardware manufacturing ⭐ Find Lost Bluetooth Devices Quickly Misplaced your wireless earbuds, smartwatch, fitness band, Bluetooth speaker, AirTag-compatible tracker, headphones, Oura ring, or any other Bluetooth device? BLE Scanner helps you locate nearby Bluetooth devices by displaying their live RSSI in real time. Simply start scanning and move around while watching the signal level. As you get closer to your device, the signal becomes stronger, helping you narrow down its location. This makes BLE Scanner an excellent companion for finding misplaced Bluetooth accessories at home, in the office, in your car, or while traveling.
