Find Bluetooth is an app that tracks Bluetooth devices around you, both nearby and distant, displaying on a radar screen the devices it has found and the approximate distance of each one. The farther away a device is, the more blue it will be and the farther from the radar center it will appear. The closer a device is to you, the more red it will be and the closer to the radar center it will appear. The radar displays the device name and Bluetooth signal strength. You can focus on any of the devices by tapping on it. When you tap on it, you'll see a card with more device details, including the device name and signal strength. The app is capable of detecting and identifying devices compatible with Bluetooth LE technology. This includes smartwatches, modern wireless headphones, and mobile devices such as smartphones, laptops, and tablets. The app displays all devices found around you. Many devices share their names, some don't, and these will be identified as "No name" on the radar screen and in the detail card. You can configure the app to hide or show unnamed devices. To do this, tap the settings icon in the upper right corner of the screen and toggle the switch according to your preference.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Find My Device at Free against Find Bluetooth's $1.99. Find My Device also leads on ratings volume (1.2K vs 13) and device support (3 vs 1). Find Bluetooth's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (57% vs 48%). On rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Find My Device holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Find My Device has 1.2K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 57% of Find Bluetooth's written reviews are positive against 48% of Find My Device's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Find Bluetooth ships an update every 4 months, Find My Device every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
