Description

The essential Bluetooth app for scanning and locating your smart devices from Apple, FitBit, Garmin, and many other companies. Scan and identify nearby devices. Locate devices by signal strength, heat map or direction finder. You can now find Fitbit and other Bluetooth devices that are paired with your iPhone. If the Bluetooth device is paired with another iPhone, turn off Bluetooth on that iPhone. Blue Hound is always scanning for Bluetooth devices. When a device is detected, Blue Hound identifies it by name, maker and model when possible. It does this using a large database of smart recognizers that are updated automatically. Devices you find are uploaded to the cloud to help you search for them later. Blue Hound works great with Bluetooth tags. If you attach one to your keys, you can locate them within 100 feet or more even outdoors in high grass. Attach one to your drone and you will be able to find it if it lands unexpectedly. Scanning for Bluetooth devices can be a fun outdoor activity. Take Blue Hound out for a walk. Enable Power Saver Mode for Blue Hound in Settings and put your iPhone in your pocket upside down. The screen will go dark and the app will enter power saver mode. If you wish, Blue Hound can even bark to alert you when a new device is found. Blue Hound has features not found in any other Bluetooth scanner or finder: • Real time Bluetooth scanner with signal strength and description • Sort the scanner list by age, distance or name • Filter the scanner list for matching text • List both active and inactive devices • Power saver option and audio alerts for scanning while walking • Search the cloud for devices you have found in the past • Search for past devices using an interactive map • Smart device identification using cloud updated recognizers • Display detailed information about a devices including is maker and model • Search Google for more information about the device • Get directions to the last known location of the device • Locate a device indoors using a signal strength meter • Locate a device outdoors using a heat map and signal graph • Outdoor direction finder saves time when searching • Display the directions on the map to triangulate the location

    I lost one of my hearing aids and immediately felt like less of a person. It is horrifying to realize that I am one misplaced item away from not being able to function in society. While I was late for work and panicking, all their apps wanted to make me subscribe for a monthly service. This app had me pay once and then helped me find my most important item. Thank you so much!!!
  • Finding lost e-scooters

    I was a city launch manager and then regional ops manager for the two big names in the e-scooter industry. As you can imagine, our scooters would end up all over the place and our night crews would go chasing after them based on their last known geolocation. Often times though, those locations were inside buildings, under water, or in private homes and garages. We started verifying that some of our scooters were indeed inside a building in non-accessible and sometimes unsafe locations with Blue Hound. Best part was 98% of city police departments considered the combo of our geolocation and the live Blue Hound data as probable cause and were more than willing to help us recover them.

    Well, congratulations are in order for this app. I lost my $300 OURA Fitness ring. I purchased a total of five Bluetooth direction finding apps. Blue hound is the only app that found it. I tried all of them. Blue hound, triangulated and found it in my office trashcan where it slipped off my finger while throwing something away i guess. The trashcan was even metal, so it was very difficult. None of the other apps found it. Thanks guys saved me a $300 fitness ring!! Ronny Ligon

    Started scanning with this app. Then started some Bluetooth devices up. The app never even scanned them in. It did however grab my location though. I wonder who its gonna sell that data too.

    bought this app in the hopes of finding a misplaced iphone and bluetooth speaker. But all the app gave me was an incomprehensible map with no explanation of what it meant — in short no help at all and a waste of money.
  • Direction finder works great
