A simple android beacon scanner that can recognize iBeacons, AltBeacons, Eddystone beacons (UID and URL, with or without TLM) and RuuviTags available on Google Play.
Available for android 5.0+ and smartphones with Bluetooth LE.
This app will scan for beacons near you! ✌️
For all Beacons:
- The type of beacon (iBeacon, AltBeacon, Eddystone or RuuviTag)
- The approximation of the distance with the beacon (this is based on the RSSI value received and is NOT accurate)
- The beacon address and manufacturer code
- The RSSI and TX values
- The last time the beacon has been seen
For iBeacons and AltBeacons:
- UUID
- Major
- Minor
For Eddystone-UID beacons:
- NamespaceID
- InstanceID
- TLM data sent if any
For Eddystone-URL and RuuviTag
- Clickable URL
- TLM data sent if any
For RuuviTag:
- Air Pressure
- Temperature
- Humidity
It can display several frames emitted by a single beacon, allowing you to see if a beacon emits multiple frames types (for example radius network beacons can emit iBeacon and AltBeacon at the same time)!
- You can also log the scans of the beacons to an endpoint via a HTTP POST request.
- This project uses Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crash reporting, therefore it needs a
google-services.json
files in theapp
directory. To get it you need to create a Firebase project in the Firebase console and go to the project settings and download thegoogle-services.json
file from there. - You'll see there is a
signingConfigs.release
in theapp/build.gradle
that contains variable that you didn't declarebeacon_scanner_key_password
,beacon_scanner_store_file
,beacon_scanner_store_password
. Either you create those 3 keys in your~/.gradle/gradle.properties
files or you can simply remove this configuration if you're not interested in having a release signing configuration. Make sure to remove it in therelease
andpreRelease
buildTypes as well. - That's it, the app should now compile!
