Description:

Bluetility is a general-purpose Bluetooth Low-Energy utility for Mac OS X. It scans for advertising peripherals, provides a interface to browse a connected peripheral's services and characteristics, and allows characteristic values to be read, written, and subscribed.


Features

• Scan for nearby advertising peripherals

• Sort peripherals by received signal strength

• View advertising data via tooltip on Devices list

• Browse services and characteristics of connected peripheral

• Subscribe to characteristic notifications

• Read/Write characteristic values

• View log of characteristic read/writes, logs may be saved as CSV


Motivation

Bluetility is inspired by LightBlue, a free bluetooth utility published by Punch Through Design. Bluetility was created to resolve issues in this tool, and add missing features:

• Support copy/paste via Cmd+C and Cmd+V
• Sort peripherals by received signal strength
• View advertising data
• Automatically reconnect to disconnected peripherals when needed

Bluetility is published as open-source so that anyone can tweak or improve its functionality to meet their own needs.
