Cluttered and Inaccurate

The scanning list continually grows as it rescans all devices within range. Leave the program running and in five minutes you’ll have a list of 1000, mostly repeats. None of the distances are accurate. Most are off by 300 feet. The maps are useless. Tags in my pocket show 7 feet away.

Key Features are Broken

The main selling point for me was the directional heatmap and compass indicator. Neither of these work. Also it would be nice if it showed device details like mac address, identifiers, etc.

functional

does what it says, wish you could set parameters and like utilize devices that are scanned, maybe you can though.. anyways it works...

Cheaper than buying a new fitbit. Pleasantly surprised.

Only had 20% power, time was of the essence. I was able to locate it before time ran out.
Now that I’m able to putts around on the app leisurely, I have some thoughts. Learning how to use the app could be more intuitive. I think the app would benefit from a tutorial when you first open it. But other than that minor gripe, I think the app is very well made, and well worth 1.99.

Found my lost hearing aid

Lost my hearing aid in the garden. Spent hours looking for it before I bought the Blue Hound app. Found it in 10 minutes. πŸ˜ƒ

$3,700 hearing aid lost and foundβ€”twice

On two occasions, I was hit in the side of the head and someone platters realized my hearing aid wasn’t in my ear.

I would never have found them without blue hound. The distance to the object are only indicators (a technology limitation about wireless). However by looking at the map and the distance in both cases I found the hearing aid. The first time it was even hidden under a leaf. This tool is great!

Instructions needed

Lack of instructions make app hard to understand.

Buy Once - No Subscription

I lost one of my hearing aids and immediately felt like less of a person. It is horrifying to realize that I am one misplaced item away from not being able to function in society.

While I was late for work and panicking, all their apps wanted to make me subscribe for a monthly service. This app had me pay once and then helped me find my most important item.

Thank you so much!!!

Finding lost e-scooters

I was a city launch manager and then regional ops manager for the two big names in the e-scooter industry. As you can imagine, our scooters would end up all over the place and our night crews would go chasing after them based on their last known geolocation. Often times though, those locations were inside buildings, under water, or in private homes and garages. We started verifying that some of our scooters were indeed inside a building in non-accessible and sometimes unsafe locations with Blue Hound. Best part was 98% of city police departments considered the combo of our geolocation and the live Blue Hound data as probable cause and were more than willing to help us recover them.

Congratulations I found my brain

Well, congratulations are in order for this app.
I lost my $300 OURA Fitness ring.
I purchased a total of five Bluetooth direction finding apps.
Blue hound is the only app that found it. I tried all of them.
Blue hound, triangulated and found it in my office trashcan where it slipped off my finger while throwing something away i guess.
The trashcan was even metal, so it was very difficult. None of the other apps found it.
Thanks guys saved me a $300 fitness ring!!

App didn’t even see my local devices.

Started scanning with this app. Then started some Bluetooth devices up. The app never even scanned them in. It did however grab my location though. I wonder who its gonna sell that data too.

of no help

bought this app in the hopes of finding a misplaced iphone and bluetooth speaker. But all the app gave me was an incomprehensible map with no explanation of what it meant β€” in short no help at all and a waste of money.

Direction finder works great

Nice work.

Great

I think this app is wonderful!

Awesome

This is useful, I found out when the 50 was near and could track down my biggest hatters.

BEST APP EVER!

I wrote something before but i am revising my review because it actually was a setting on my phone not the app. Anyways, this is by far the best best bluetooth finder app out there and believe me I have literally downloaded them all! The developer is awesome and responded to my email so fast and took the time to explain and troubleshoot the app with me. Truly a well done app and genius developer. Extremely happy with all of it and the direction finder is simply amazing to see it work! Even though it is made for outdoors, it works amazing indoors also! No problems here! Thank you for creating a great app! 10 stars!
