LightBlue at Mac App Store analyse

Don’t bother to download this app if you have a Macbook pro 15’ 2015 with El Capitan, it don’t work at all. Not tested with other configurations.

…. So dont bother installing it, its just a trap to make you pay for something you re not suppose to pay for

Though this is a really great app and very useful - just like LightBlue for iOS - it has the problem that it does not work since 10.9.2 . And alas, Punch Through Design does not react on Bugreports.

Just gets stuck, asking to turn on Bluetooth, even though it’s already on. Edit: I think this might have to do with my hardware’s lack of support for BLE. Still, a better explanation should be provided by the program, rather then just offering to Quit.

Yeah, it is true. Disconnect from ibeacon every 5 seconds with last MacBook Air 13.

This app has been great for testing my BLE development data. I purchased the dongle that they promote through the app as I have an older Macbook Air and it worked a charm. It also works in the current version of the XCode simulator so you dont need to run out and pick up a new iOS device immediately.

This is a solid, basic tool that was able to pinpoint a problem in a bluetooth low energy communication link. Big help in determining that a BLE112 development board was working, and that the problem was in my data format. The write services in hex or ascii are key for troubleshooting. Used on a 2011 MacBook Air with integrated BT 4.0 where the built-in bluetooth software had not been discovering my low energy BT devices. Thanks!
