BLE Radar
Read full descriptionHide full description
BLE Radar helps you survey nearby Bluetooth Low Energy devices and follow changes in their signal strength. Explore a live radar, search and sort discovered advertisers, save personal nicknames and favorites, hide unnamed devices, and choose a target for Hunt mode with optional proximity clicks and haptics. Signal strength is a clue, not a map. Walls, pockets, device orientation, and radio power can change a reading. BLE Radar does not show direction or GPS location, cannot make arbitrary devices ring, and is not Find My. Optionally discover AirPlay, Cast, printer, web and file-sharing services advertised on your local network. This does not scan every nearby Wi-Fi device or access point. Brands are broadcast hints, not verified product identities. No account, ads, analytics, purchases, or cloud service. Scan data is processed on your device and favorites stay local.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: My Network at 13.0 against BLE Radar's 26.2. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
