Fixes: • Show progress and a clear result while restoring purchases • Fix several edge cases that could cause purchases or restoration to fail silently

Fixes: • Fix race conditions in Pro purchase restoration.

Features: • Automatically detect peripheral name changes. • Add 250+ descriptions to characteristics based on the latest Bluetooth specification. Fixes: • Fix crash in settings for a future version of iOS.

Features: • 40% more companies identified and over double the characteristics recognised. • Toggle signal strength to RSSI by tapping the signal percentage in the peripheral detail view. • Improve the signal strength calculation by considering the device model running the scan. Fixes: • Improve scanning performance and reliability in Low Power Mode.

Features: • Processing of device and scan information has been rewritten (using SwiftData) to be faster, more efficient, and with thread safety (using Swift 6 language mode) to reduce race conditions in processing changes from CoreBluetooth. • Apple device knowledge updated for 2026. Fixes: • Fix context menu crash on peripherals list. • Fix location map annotation visibility. • Fix connectability state being re-queried constantly when lots of devices have been found. • Fix orientation support in App Clip. • Fix scanning mode picker button overlap.

iOS 26 Liquid Glass

Fixes: • Fix a missing animation when navigating to a peripheral on a compact display and make navigation more reliable.

Fixes: • Fix a missing animation when navigating to a peripheral on a compact display and fix navigating between services and characteristics in split view.

Features: • Background Scanning: Scan for peripherals in the background. Suggests suitable service IDs for scanning. • Location: Count devices found per location. Show locations scanned on a map. • Live Activity: Keep track of background scanning status outside the app. Supports Always-On display and Dynamic Island on iPhone 14 Pro.

Fixes: • Improvements to layout and legibility of various parts of the app for users with an accessibility font size set.

Features: • A new Hex option in the Write Value shortcut action lets you write a hex value to a characteristic from the Shortcuts app. • Manually reload a characteristic value with the reload button above the characteristic value history. • 5 battery icons are now used for more granularity in battery level. Fixes: • Make sure the peripheral is in the expected state before trying to write to a characteristic of it.

Features: • Continuing with the backend performance improvements last version, this version improves the frontend UI performance. Swift Concurrency and refactoring of frontend and backend interaction code has enabled a better separation between the two. Fixes: • When first receiving a value for a characteristic, don't try to read the same value again unprompted.

Features: • The backend of the app now uses Apple CoreData, allowing for much more efficient temporary storage of detected devices, tested up to thousands of concurrent detections. • Bluetooth Inspector now keeps track of the time a peripheral was last seen, updating a count of devices currently visible separate from all devices. A new row customisation option has been added to show the time since the device was last seen. Fixes: • Various fixes and improvements to VoiceOver reading peripheral information.

Features: • A new shortcut action, ‘Write Value’ will write a value to a characteristic on a peripheral. Strings and numerics can be written to any writable characteristic discovered from interrogation on scanned peripherals.

Features: • Cancel a ‘disconnect all’ action and show when completed. • Set scanning mode and see more information about peripherals in the App Clip. Fixes: • Improve support for iOS 14, reducing crashes and improving layout.

Features: • Display ANCS authorisation: Detect and display if devices have Apple Notification Center Service access to your notifications. • Better detect device disconnection: Detect situations where the peripheral you're interrogating disconnects from you, including during the initial interrogation process and while waiting for a response to a message you sent. Fixes: • Sometimes the initial information obtained through advertisement data would incorrectly take priority over the results of interrogation, leading to empty services. This has been resolved.

Bluetooth Inspector now understands advertisement data! • Gather and present advertisement data from devices as they are discovered. • Preload services when present in advertisement. • Show timestamp advertised by device when discovered. • Use MAC address in advertisement for manufacturer detection. More Features: • Characteristic descriptors. Descriptor information is now displayed alongside characteristic values if descriptors are present in the received information about a device. • Detect when not ready to receive messages. Sometimes devices are not ready to receive the next message as they're still processing the previous one. Bluetooth Inspector is now able to detect this situation and let you know that your next message might be missed by the device. You're still welcome to try sending a message though! • Status of attempted writes. Alongside the history of received values, Bluetooth Inspector now keeps a list of attempted writes with the status of each. Observe the queue messages and watch as they are processed by the recipient device. • Support writes without response. Some characteristics don't provide the ability to acknowledge receipt of your sent messages. Bluetooth Inspector now supports the ability to send messages without acknowledgement, which may also increase the amount of bytes that can be sent in the message. • Copy all the things from all the places. Device information, as originally received from the device or as decoded by Bluetooth Inspector. All the IDs and UUIDs for peripherals, services and characteristics. Values and the history of them. Context menus everywhere.

Features: • Shortcut actions automate scanning and interrogation, enumerating services and characteristics, and reading values.

Features: • Filter by event circumstance in the session log. • Awareness of 8 more Apple device characteristics. Fixes: • Fix UUIDs showing instead of known characteristic and service names, and these showing in the wrong size or with the wrong background.

Features: • Log found peripherals, services, characteristics and values. Export a .log file of timestamped events.

Features: • Add awareness of 46 new services, 97 new characteristics, 113 new characteristic descriptions, and 297 new companies producing Bluetooth peripherals.

Features: • Design your own peripheral rows with the information you desire at the forefront. Choose to include components like make and signal strength, then rearrange and adjust text sizes for your own needs. Fixes: • Improvements to the entry of new values for characteristics, including fixes to some race conditions causing crashes and a clear ‘done’ button for dismissing the keyboard.

Features: • Redesigned options menu to be consistent across all platforms, making it easier to access and change settings. Bluetooth Inspector is now available on Apple TV!

Fixes: • Correct list styles for compact layouts (iOS and slide over iPadOS).

Features: • Redesign the scanning selector to simplify switching between the types of scanning and interrogation • All three scanning states are now available in the toolbar for easier access. • Choose to manually query the peripheral for a new characteristic value from the value history list. Fixes: • Fix issues relating to changes to Bluetooth APIs and workaround issues opening the options page in upcoming iOS releases.
