BleScanner Pro
Bluetooth Low Energy Advertisement Decoder & GATT Explorer
Hardware engineer's Bluetooth Low Energy diagnostic workstation. Sniffs and decodes BLE advertising packets, manufacturer data, iBeacon, Eddystone beacons, and explores connected GATT services, characteristics, and descriptors.
Head-to-Head Competitor Analysis
Why BleScanner Pro is cheaper, faster, and more secure than nRF Connect (limited export) / Wireshark BLE Sniffer Hardware ($150).
| Comparison Metric | BleScanner Pro | nRF Connect (limited export) / Wireshark BLE Sniffer Hardware ($150) |
|---|---|---|
| License Model & Price | $39.99 (One-Time Perpetual) | $150 dedicated hardware sniffer |
| Annual Financial Savings | Save $110+ every single year | |
| Competitor Drawbacks | Requires proprietary dongles, sluggish cross-platform tools that drop packets during high advertising density | |
| Why Vivian Is Better | One-time $39.99 perpetual license, works with standard built-in Bluetooth controllers, live GATT tree, instant PCAP export | |
| Execution Environment | 100% Offline Air-Gapped | Mandatory cloud check-in |
| Runtime Telemetry | Zero Telemetry (0.00KB sent) | Cloud telemetry & user tracking |
