Still useful in 2025

Works great on a scruffy iPhone 5 running IOS 12.
There seems to be a bug in that you can’t return to the ‘advertising’ screen after you have left it. The solution is to close and re-open the app.

Unable to scan for iBeacons

I am unable to see iBeacons when scanning. I tested advertising from another iPhone with the same Locate app and from the RadBeacon E4 with no luck.

Tried with iPhone XS and 11 Pro Max.

Use android

The android version of this app is exactly what I wanted. Sadly, the iOS version is extremely lacking. Android version: lists all beacons advertising in range. iOS version: add beacon info under settings to locate.
