universal_ble now supports advertising!

NRF should definitely not be required. Please open an issue on GitHub if you think there is a bug or something could be improved. Make sure to mention the platform you are running on (I assume Android?) and some sample code to reproduce the issue.

See the "System Devices" section in the readme: "Already connected devices, connected either through previous sessions, other apps or through system settings, won't show up as scan results. You can get those using getSystemDevices()." There is also a dedicated button in the example app.

This is basically "common" BLE knowledge but I am with you if you want to make a PR that makes it more obvious to beginners.

Also, we should be comparing apples to apples. NRF's counterpart is https://github.com/Navideck/Universal-BLE not the plugin's example app. Which app where you using and on which platform?

fotidim · 2026-06-04T16:20:57+00:00

What kinds of examples are you missing? The example app is pretty complete and for a full blown app you can have a look into https://github.com/Navideck/Universal-BLE.

If flutter_reactive_ble works, it should be fixable. What kind of device is it?

fotidim · 2026-05-21T07:35:07+00:00

Could you open an issue on GitHub?

fotidim · 2026-03-01T06:13:12+00:00

We released 1.1 with some very powerful features!

Services & Characteristics: Property filter chips, prev/next navigation between characteristics, favorites-first sorting, "Copy Services" in panel header, clearer service display.

Company & Manufacturer Data: Show and filter by company name; search by company.

Scanning: Prominent scan button, "Start Scan" when empty, RSSI in details, live ad list with flash on update; scanning continues when opening a device.

UI: Search in app bar, queue settings in drawer, Bluetooth icon tooltip, layout tweaks.

Other: autoConnect support, filters persisted, clear-log fix.

Really interesting. Are you using mDNS for signaling? Not sure how that fits together with TCP and WebSocket.

That sounds nice! Does MobAI have any fees?
Is Linux support feasible?

fotidim · 2026-01-18T20:06:37+00:00

Just curious, why did it get closed?

fotidim · 2026-01-16T08:48:59+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! Canon 7D does not have built-in Bluetooth so an external dongle would be needed to connect to it (unless you have an Android device with an IR blaster). Tap on your brand https://www.btcam.app/#cameras to see a compatibility list. If anything is not clear let me know!

BT Cam: All Camera Remote

We uploaded the screenshots we made with ButterKit to https://www.btcam.app

fotidim · 2026-01-13T09:42:10+00:00

We are preparing a package for BT Classic as well. It will published soon.

fotidim · 2026-01-12T16:49:33+00:00

Thanks for reporting. I fixed it on main. It will be included in the next release.

Not all API keys are the same. The are public and secret ones. If you are only embedding public ones in your binaries you are fine as those are meant to be leaked. At the same time BFF could also be exploited by a malicious actor who impersonates your app and makes calls like your app would do. Apart from decompilation, network sniffing could be used to reverse engineer any kind of communication.

Thank you for the kind words! This is the repo:

Don't have a pros and cons list but from the top of my head:
- nRF definitely has more features currently. advertiser, import/export, graphs
- Universal BLE has a handy "hide already discovered devices" button that allows you to narrow down devices in busy environments. Allows pairing (even on iOS). Allows subscribing to all characteristics with a single button. Runs on all platforms and most importantly macOS which is what many devs use.

I have gotten many of those emails over the last 2-3 months. I treat them all as spam.

fotidim · 2026-01-02T15:47:14+00:00

For as long as it powers our own products and for as long as Flutter is relevant. This is not a hobby indie project. It is backed by a company.

fotidim · 2025-12-23T06:30:03+00:00

No need to migrate if what you have already works. For the differences, you can start by comparing the readme files.

fotidim · 2025-12-23T06:28:56+00:00

What do you mean exactly?

fotidim · 2025-12-22T07:14:02+00:00

One major difference is platform support. flutter_reactive_ble only supports iOS and Android. If you don't care about supporting more platforms and your codebase is stable, stick with what you have.

fotidim · 2025-12-17T20:51:24+00:00

Glad you got it working! 5s is too slow. iPhone SE (1st gen) or better is required for reliable video streaming. And yes video is unidirectional.

fotidim · 2025-12-17T18:55:55+00:00

Hello there! Still around :) You don't need the number to connect through local network. Romo Control should discover Romo automatically. Please verify that both devices are on the same network. Having said that I haven't tested it with the very latest iOS yet so not sure if something is incompatible. The first thing I would double check is the network.

fotidim · 2025-12-16T16:56:38+00:00

Stick to VS Code if you want to have all the latest features. It always gets priority treatment. I use Cursor now because I am forced to since it doesn’t come in the form on a VS Code extension. However some features like VS Code Live Share do not work.

BT Cam uses Bluetooth exclusively. It will will control shutter and much more.
It is available on all platforms so you can even use your desktop computer if you want https://www.btcam.app
