Hello,
I am trying to develop an app that has to connect to a Bluetooth Low Energy device. I believe I need to add a BLE block to do this, but I have searched everywhere and there does not appear to be a block related to BLE. I am using the free version of Thunkable. Is the BLE block only available in the paid versions of Thunkable?
Welcome to Thunkable.
You will find BLE under the Advanced drawer in the Blocks screen.
Thanks so much. I can see it now under the Advanced drawer in the Blocks screen.
But in order to use this block, I need to also add a BLE component in the Design screen. Is that true? I am unable to find any BLE component in the Design screen. I am currently using the free version of Thunkable. Is the BLE component not available in the free version of Thunkable? Do I need to upgrade to Starter or Pro?
There is no visible BLE component.
Thunkable has two development platforms; StP (Snap to Place) and DnD (Drag and Drop). You are using the DnD which has few components (these has a visual image in the screen. All components that does not have a visual image were moved to the Blocks screen.
Just use the BLE from the blocks screen and start using the programming blocks.
Thanks so much for your help. I got it now.
