BLE Signal Strength Level (RSSI)

Questions about Thunkable Feature Requests
,
1

Is there a way to get the Bluetooth strength (RSSI) value or does Thunkable has a roadmap to adding so? Will be really helpful for communication range testing and assessing the signal quality in general.

Thanks

Thanks for reaching out about this. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to retrieve that value with our current set of BLE blocks. I am going to change the category for this to Feature Request in case any other users are looking to do the same!

Sounds good @matt_conroy.

Thanks

Maybe this needs to be a separate thread of it’s own, but another feature that would be superb is ability to fetch and decode data in BLE connectionless/Beacon mode, which is a standard and readily available with native SDKs.
