The BLE360 app is a FREE app that allows you to scan nearby Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices and beacons. The scanner can be configured to show either all Bluetooth devices or only the devices that are recognized as beacons, and filter results by rssi range. For beacons, the BLE360 App allows you to read a number of characteristics such as beacon name, password, rssi calibration, frequency, power, major, minor, and region.
