Asks to connect to devices when Bluetooth is off. Who knows what this app is doing in the background without permission?! What ever it is , it ain't good - Tapping "tabs" doesn't work (nothing changes in the UI). To get some response from tapping UI controls typically requires (a) launching nRF Connect, (b) switching to another app, (c) switching back to nRF Connect. I've tried uninstalling and re-downloading. Same result. This used to be the bee's knees of BLE tools but it's only worth 1 star at the moment (v2.7.11). - Cant go past the initial announcement. The app is unresponsive to the taps. **Most requested features** - Where's the mac addresses - Max rssi limit - Log view - We need macros in iOS version ## Newest reviews (20 of 225) ### 5/5 — Reliable scanner *2026-07-16* Was struggling to find my Fitbit Air with another app, tried nRF Connect and it picked it up right away.

Die App zeigt zuverlässig alle BLE-Geräte in der Umgebung, ermöglicht das Verbinden, das Auslesen von Services und Characteristics und hilft enorm dabei, Fehler einzugrenzen. Mir hat sie heute dabei geholfen, ein vermeintlich defektes Messgerät als völlig funktionsfähig zu identifizieren. Das eigentliche Problem lag in einer veralteten Hersteller-App – ohne nRF Connect hätte ich vermutlich unnötig weiter nach einem Hardwarefehler gesucht. Übersichtlich, schnell, stabil und dabei kostenlos. Genau so sollte eine Diagnose-App aussehen. Absolute Empfehlung – nicht nur für Entwickler, sondern auch für technisch interessierte Anwender und Smart-Home-Enthusiasten. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
