diBlue vs MicroBlue

DSD TECH Bluetooth is now diBlue. Version 2.4 updates the same app under its new name; existing users can update their current installation. diBlue is a practical workspace for compatible Bluetooth Low Energy devices and DSD TECH relay modules. Discover devices, exchange Text or HEX data and keep frequently used commands close at hand. FIND AND ORGANIZE DEVICES - Scan nearby BLE devices and view their names and signal strength. - Save favorites and assign local aliases without changing the hardware name. - Switch between All and Favorites, view device details and choose a device type. - Copy a device's iOS UUID from its details. This identifier is not its hardware MAC address. - Hide unrelated devices from discovery results and restore them from Settings when needed. SEND COMMANDS AND REUSE YOUR WORK - Send and receive Text or HEX data. - Send once or repeat at a chosen interval, with a stop control. - Choose None, CR, LF or CRLF line endings for text commands. - Reuse recent commands from History and save frequently used commands in Starred. - Selecting a saved command fills the input for review; it does not send automatically. - Read color-coded send and receive logs, with optional timestamps and automatic scrolling. CONTROL COMPATIBLE DSD TECH RELAYS - Detect the channel count on supported one- and four-channel modules. - View device-reported channel states and refresh them when needed. - Control individual channels or use All on and All off on four-channel modules. - Confirm control results through a follow-up status query to the device. CHOOSE YOUR LANGUAGE AND DISPLAY PREFERENCES The interface supports English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese (Taiwan), German, French, Spanish (Spain), Italian, Portuguese (Portugal) and Japanese. Follow your system language or choose a language in Settings. You can also keep the screen on while connected and adjust log timestamps and automatic scrolling. LOCAL STORAGE, NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED diBlue contains no ads and requires no account. Device profiles, favorites, aliases, settings, command history and starred commands are stored locally. Apple-managed backups and device transfers may preserve this data according to your settings. COMPATIBILITY Requires iOS 15 or later and compatible BLE hardware. Classic Bluetooth SPP devices are not supported. Data transfer requires the supported FFE0 service and FFE1 characteristic; relay controls require the supported DSD TECH relay protocol. diBlue does not work with every Bluetooth device. Bluetooth permission is required to discover and connect to nearby devices. The app does not request location permission. Support: dsd_tech@outlook.com

MicroBlue is a companion app for microcontroller projects. Connect to your board over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), control it from your phone, and see what it sends back. DRIVE Two halves, each a D-Pad, Joystick, Tank (one stick per side), Tilt (steer by tilting the phone), Panel or Console. Leaving the Drive screen or the app sends the stop position. Buttons, switches, sliders with your own min and max, steppers, color buttons and text fields. Each sends its value with an id you choose. DISPLAYS Show what your board sends: a Value with its unit, a Bar, an LED, or a Chart of the last 10, 30 or 60 seconds that draws up to 4 lines from values like x,y,z. CONSOLE AND RECORDING See every message sent and received. Record a session to a CSV file and open it in Google Sheets, Excel or Numbers, great for classroom experiments. LAYOUTS Save a layout for each project and switch between them. Share a layout with a whole class by QR code or link; students add it with Scan QR Code. A STEADY CONNECTION • A heartbeat lets your board's program stop safely when the phone goes out of range or the app closes (can be turned off in Settings) • Reconnects to your board automatically • Shows the signal strength • Choose what to send to and receive from on each board WORKS WITH Boards with built-in BLE or an HM-10 module, such as the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi, Arduino UNO R3 or UNO R4 Minima with an HM-10, Raspberry Pi Pico W (or Pico with an HM-10) and ESP32-S3. Messages use a simple format in both directions: [0x01] id [0x02] value [0x03]. Help in the app shows what each control sends. Requires iOS 16.4 or later.
