BlueTools Bluetooth Assistant is a powerful generic tool that can connect you to all of your devices that use Bluetooth Low Energy (henceforth Bluetooth LE, also called Bluetooth Version 4.0+ of the Bluetooth specification).
BlueTools Bluetooth Assistant has two modes, central and peripheral.
- In central mode, you can scan for and connect to all BLE devices around you. And you can read and write to characteristics and subscribe to notifications.
- To enter BLE peripheral mode, you can create a virtual device. Your iOS device is advertising as that particular BLE peripheral. The app allows you to customize the services and characteristics of any virtual peripheral profile.
Full support for reading, writing, and notification is included. You can view the signal strength (RSSI) to get an idea of how close you are to the peripheral.
