The list of components you see in FREE version is the same list of the PRO version. There are no additional components for PRO only functionality such as the publish as web app and personalization of your app. ---

I’m using this public project at my Android device, [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/c6a631e2d73ec44292da7d8b8a972b9a), when I press Refresh button the app not list any devices. ---

I have tested your project. It works fine but you need to check for error like this ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/a/a/aacfc1dfec90b2f4edb1f5c7128f2b026278c722.png) If there is an error it will be displayed in the list. If all is OK then you will see available devices. Remember, BLE does not work in the computer or in the web. BLE can only be tested with Android Thunkable live app. For iOS, you need to install the app to test. Hope this helps. ---

The BLE scan function requires` Location Services` to be active and will fail if Location Services is switched off. This is why you need to use the error green block to check if there is a problem. I made few changes on your project to make it show information messages. [BLE Scan for Douglas](https://x.thunkable.com/projectPage/6005d05a20b98900119d10e1) Check this. ---
