App Detail » Aqua: Bluetooth Low Energy Discovery Probe and Terminal for Bluetooth 4.0, BLE, BTLE & Bluetooth Smart

App Description

Welcome to Aqua, a Bluetooth Low Energy discovery probe and terminal (RXTX). This app is for BlueTooth Low Energy ONLY. Bluetooth Low Energy is also known as BTLE, BLE, BlueTooth 4.0, and Bluetooth Smart. It will NOT connect to or discover standard Bluetooth Devices.

Features:

- Receive Functions, HEX & ASCII
- SEND Function
- Advanced Services Discovery
- Notify Function: HEX & ASCII
- Services Mimic
- Central & Peripheral Modes
- Compatible all Apple devices released since the iPhone 4S in 2012

Central Mode: Scans for peripherals within range. Tap to connect. Use Central Mode to explore available services on a specific chip.

Peripheral Mode: Allows you to use your phone to emulate a specific BLE Service. For example you can setup your iPhone to act as a Heart Rate monitor.

Connectivity: BTLE may disconnect periodically because it is designed to conserve energy.

IMPORTANT: Ensure you are sending properly formatted data specific to the target device. DO NOT use the SEND feature unless you understand the receiving device’s protocols.

Example on How to Connect 2 iPhones:
- Ensure your Bluetooth is ON for both devices.

- Device 2: Tap Peripheral
- Device 2: Tap + on Navigation Bar
- Device 2: Select ‘Immediate Alert’ Service

- Device 1: Tap Central
