BlueSpy vs XDiscovery

BlueSpy is the next generation BLE peripheral analyzer tool that allow you to inspect, read and write data with virtually any device capable of communicate with Bluetooth Low Energy standard and GATT profile. BlueSpy is an experimental tool that let you explore the capabilities of your nearby bluetooth devices and interact with them so that you can use it to: debug, analyze, measure or reverse engineering in the attempt to better understand their behaviour and their security level. BlueSpy is mostly a free tool, but in the effort to maintain and evolve it some features will only be availables under in-app purchase. Key Features: - Scan nearby device and return advertisment data in realtime. - Sort peripherals by name, identifier and signal strength. - Filter scanned peripherals. - Identify device type and model based on expandable knowledge base. - Read peripheral services, characteristics and descriptors. - Write data to peripheral characteristics. - Explore logs for any communication between BlueSpy and your BLE devices. - Configure custom settings like auto-notification, auto-remove unreachable peripherals, stop scan on idle, and more.

XDiscovery finds the devices around your iPhone. The All tab searches Bluetooth and the local network together. Type in the search field to narrow the list. Bluetooth rows show the device name, signal bars, and the reading in dBm. Wi-Fi rows show the device name, its address, and the Bonjour service. The Bluetooth tab lists nearby Bluetooth devices. Named devices and the full count are shown at the top. Unnamed devices can be shown or hidden. Open a device to see a live ten-bar signal meter and the services and values it exposes, including battery level when the device provides it. The Wi-Fi tab browses Bonjour services on the local network. Pick a service type, then a device, to see its address and the details it advertises. Groups keeps the devices you care about. My Devices is ready to use, and you can add more groups. Add a device from its row or from its detail screen. While a saved device is nearby, its row is highlighted. Bluetooth devices in a group show live signal strength. XDiscovery only looks. It does not pair with devices, change their settings, or send commands. Groups stay on this iPhone.
