Hey @H_i_CH_n_Nguy_n

You can try something like light blue to give you all the details about your BLE device(s)

> [@BLE Characteristic UUID issues](http://community.thunkable.com/t/ble-characteristic-uuid-issues/508037):

> I created an app: [Thunkable](https://x.thunkable.com/projects/5e447690fa2000a7c8ab5c14/420a269b-5845-4bc4-8fcb-4fa88a3e5e79/blocks) This app is using BLE to talk to an HM-10 module on arduino. When I scan, I find my device. When I connect, it reports that it is connected. When I try to send a string I get the error: “Can’t write the characteristic provided”. I attached screen shots of my block, lightblue screen shot, error message. I used lightblue to find the Advertised Service UUIDs. Is that the correct ID?[SurfBleBlock]

Hope that helps!
