ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Find My Bluetooth Device holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Find My Bluetooth Device has 136 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Scanner Bluetooth's written reviews are positive against 81% of Find My Bluetooth Device's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Scanner Bluetooth ships an update every 84 months, Find My Bluetooth Device every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
