## What is NanoBeacon BLE Scanner?

The NanoBeacon BLE Scanner is an advanced Bluetooth LE scanner app. Unlike offerings from other vendors and developers, our main focus is on presenting the advertising/broadcast data transmitted by surrounding BLE peripherals and beacons in the most user-friendly manner.

By combining it with the NanoBeacon IN100 Bluetooth beacon development kit, you unlock a whole new level of advanced functionality not possible in any other platform!

The NanoBeacon IN100 is our ultra low power, ultra low cost, BLE beacon platform that you can configure from a connected PC app with no programming or writing a single line of code. After you’ve configured the device, you can then import that same configuration into the app with a simple QR code scan.

Now the app will not only find your device, but also fully parse the advertising data and display it in a human readable format that actually makes sense!

Main features:

- Discover advertising BLE devices around you
- Display the RSSI and advertising interval
- Display the details of the advertising data
- Advanced filters for filtering or unwanted devices
- Sort by RSSI
- Supports parsing and labeling of Eddystone, iBeacon, and custom data beacons
- Import the IN100 configuration file from the companion PC app via a simple scan of an autogenerated QR code
- Parse and display the advertising data off devices that match the imported configuration in a human readable format
- Receive app notifications for “triggered” advertisements. Triggered advertisements are advertisements that get transmitted only when a set of conditions, defined by the user, have been met.

## Key features

- Discover BLE devices
- Display RSSI and advertising interval
- Parse advertising data
- Advanced filtering
- Sort by RSSI
- Parse Eddystone, iBeacon, custom data
- Import IN100 configuration via QR code
- Notifications for triggered advertisements

### 1/5 — Good for nothing

*2026-04-09*

Serves no real purpose, it just shows very limited information about the devices, with no options for connecting or interacting with them. You can’t even copy the information. Also, it forces the user to allow the camera use. Without it the app locks you out.

### 1/5 — Clunky trash

*2024-02-22*

I remember a time when code would work before release. Not these clowns a new generation half coded trash expect and the. Expect a pat on the back as if they did a good job. Now wonder everyone is turning to AI trash develop app at least the work somewhat 
May I suggest you read up on ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119 Software Testing

### 5/5 — For the other reason it doesn’t

*2023-06-28*

Very good but it is still good

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2023-02-08*

Love that I can import NanoBeacon configurations with the QR code.
