Description
This is a simple Bluetooth connection debugging tool for programmers. It works only with Bluetooth devices that meet all of these conditions:
- The device broadcasts data - The device starts broadcasting automatically upon pairing, without any handshake or protocol negotiation - The device broadcasts ASCII data, not binary
Future development may improve these points.
Features of the current version:
1. Connect to a Bluetooth device 2. Display incoming raw text data line by line (if the device broadcasts such data) 3. Send raw text data to the connected device
You can confirm successful pairing, monitor incoming raw text data and see exactly what is being transmitted from the Bluetooth device.
I plan to add the following features in the future:
* Support Bluetooth devices that broadcast binary data, not only text * Option to see data in hexadecimal format instead of text * Option to add timestamp to incoming messages * Option to add GPS info to incoming messages * Plugin framework for customized views tailored to specific Bluetooth devices, especially various types of sensors
Please report problems or feature requests by email or using this page: https://github.com/janosgyerik/bluetoothviewer/issues
* Alan Haddy (www.ipegcorp.com): option to record incoming Bluetooth data and send as email attachment
If you like this app, you can support my work by buying the otherwise identical full version of the app for 1 Euro: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.bluetoothviewer.full
Happy Bluetooth debugging :)

This app rocks for one reason This app made it possible to connect my Withing's Pulse with my HTC One X in 5 seconds after spending weeks NOT being able to connect. Download and use this app if you too lost the ability to sync with a recent software update to your Pulse. It'll be months before Withings fixes this, if ever.

Awesome app Just like Tj Flemings I had an issue connecting to a devise and this allowed me to thank you!!!!
★★★★★
Works as advertised Does a great job of showing Bluetooth data. Very uesful for debugging.
★★★★★
Works on Android smartphone and tablet (4.2, 4.4). Shows more info than any of my machines' OS software does. Would by interesting to see vulnerabilities in Bluetooth (4.0) connections, like if keys on a Bluetooth keyboard are securely transmitted to the device its paired with.
★★☆☆☆
Didn't detect my Bluetooth device. My phone had it in the list without pairing so I know it was detectable. Maybe this app doesn't detect BLE? Either way, it was useless for my purposes.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't connect I've never managed to make this app connect to me Bluetooth headset. It seems to be rather useless.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work. Just says not connected any time I click any of my devices. They definitely are when I try.
★★☆☆☆
Too Lite The Lite version doesn't even have the button that makes the app do something.
