BLE Terminal vs Bluetooth Serial Connect

Talk to any Bluetooth Low Energy device — straight from your iPhone, iPad or Mac. BLE Terminal is built for makers, IoT and firmware developers who need more than a scanner: find a device, connect, and send commands in a couple of taps. BUILT FOR REAL WORK • Terminal with live Notify responses • Hex keyboard + one-tap Hex / ASCII switching • Command presets you can add, edit and reuse • Read, Write and Notify on any characteristic • Auto-reconnect when you send to a disconnected device • Multiple connections at once • Select, copy and export logs • Works on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro HOW IT WORKS 1. Scan — see nearby BLE devices with signal strength (RSSI) and advertisement data. 2. Connect — browse every service and characteristic. 3. Send — type Hex or ASCII, or tap a saved command. Responses appear live in the terminal. USE CASES - BLE module testing (e.g. ESP32, nRF5x, TI CC2541, HM-10) - IoT development for smart home, wearables, medical, and industrial applications (Also works perfectly with Bluetooth trackers, sensors, and remote controllers.) - Debugging BLE sensor data and notifications - Testing fitness trackers, smart watches, beacons, and Bluetooth accessories (Monitor and control your devices with this lightweight Bluetooth remote solution.) - Educational tool for learning BLE protocol and characteristics ONE PURCHASE.

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a custom control panel for Arduino and BLE projects, without building a dedicated iOS app. Bluetooth Serial Connect lets you design a board, connect to an HM-10-style Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) UART module, and exchange commands and live readouts with your hardware. The companion Bluetooth Serial Connect Arduino library makes it straightforward to read controls and update displays, indicators, and gauges in your sketch. DESIGN YOUR BOARD Place, move, resize, and customize nine component types: • Buttons with momentary, latch, and repeat behavior • Joysticks, sliders, toggles, and D-pads • Text displays, labels, indicators, and gauges Assign channel numbers that stay fixed when you rearrange controls. Fine-tune colors, labels, value ranges, board appearance, and haptic feedback. Undo and redo changes, duplicate and lock controls, snap them to the grid, and adjust their front-to-back order. START WITH TEMPLATES AND EXAMPLES Explore seven editable board templates for RC cars, robotic arms, menu remotes, sensor hubs, smart-home relays, and more. Companion Arduino sketches and protocol examples help you connect the app to your code. Follow the interactive walkthrough or try a board with simulated data—no hardware required. Import, export, share, and duplicate boards as your projects grow. CONNECT AND TROUBLESHOOT Scan for nearby BLE devices, follow clear connection progress, remember frequently used modules for quick reconnecting, and configure service and characteristic UUIDs. Use the timestamped two-way console to inspect sent and received messages or send console text while you troubleshoot. Setup guides, wiring help, complete examples, and the wire protocol reference are available at bluetooth.henhen1227.com. Bluetooth Serial Connect is designed for HM-10-style BLE modules. Other BLE UART hardware may work when its service and characteristic UUIDs match the app settings. HC-05 and HC-06 Bluetooth Classic modules are not supported. A compatible BLE module is required for live hardware control. FREE OR PRO Start with one board free.
