Hi,
I am designing an App to collect some sensor data using Bluetooth HC-05. I can see the device, and the data is receiving correctly when I checked it with the Serial Bluetooth terminal. However, I can’t see the device name or ID while I use the BLE component in Thunkable. Please help me if anyone has faced the same issue and got some solution.
Hi,
When you say that “I can see the device” do you mean in your bluetooth settings on the Android device?
Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy are 2 different things, so you may be able to see the sensor in the Bluetooth settings on your Android device but it doesn’t appear in a BLE scan.
Looking here, it seems that the HC-05 runs Bluetooth 2.0 rather than BLE.
To make sure, download this app - Lightblue, which searches for BLE devices specifically.
If you can see it, you can get the hex id and run this code to connect to it.
You will need to create a BLE component under Bluetooth.
If you need any further assistance, I will try to help.
