Thank you for this helpful video! I’m working on an iOS app that needs to detect beacons even when the app is killed. Is this possible? I have already enabled all background permissions, but I am not triggering any event when the beacon is already in the region.
This is only channel talking about BLE and beacons in RN. Your videos deserve more views! I have a question about library that you are using. I was trying to test it with my simulated beacon and it didn't show up in the list of devices. On their FAQ page their is an article saying beacons are not supported and recommending different library, but you are using it with beacons and some other people too. So now I'm little confused if it's supported or not or just outdated info. Thanks a lot!
Great video, thanks! I have a question regarding 5.0 checkbox: does that mean that I need to buy beacon with 5.0 or does it simply means that Aroco Beacon with only 4.0 checkbox selected not gonna work properly? Asking this, as I don't see many beacons with 5.0 being sold in my country, only ones with 4.x
When I tried the Aroco with 4.0 it couldn’t be scanned by newer iOS or Android devices. I haven’t tried other beacons so unfortunately I don’t know how they would react. You would need to experiment and see.
Hi bro! We want to get ibeacon's major,minor and uuid datas. How can we get to major,minor,uuid datas? (Btw we already got to "rssi,localname,macadress). We want to develop android project with react native and we use react-native-ble-plx. What can you suggest to us? We are trying to shred the manufacturer data, but we couldn't shred it (base64 format). If you know how to get major minor values can you give us some advice? Thank you very much
Hey, I think this is a library issue. I see you made an issue in the BLE plx library. Unfortunately I don’t have any knowledge that the library creators don’t already have.
I solved this problem. I split the manufacturer data with base64 and the numbers came out and their values in the 21-24 index range gave the major and minor values
It will only work if you do the setup steps outlined in this video React-Native with Expo and Bluetooth Low Energy for Beginners ruclips.net/video/UuHLPsjp6fM/видео.html

I am not sure how to do this when the app is in the background. It might make sense to look into this:
docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/location/

It seems to be somewhat finicky. It only worked for me with Bluetooth 5 as seen in the video. Bluetooth 4.2 and below had issues.
Android 12 and 13 doesn't find beacons - Permissions are granted with requestMultiple function.
Can i set up a mobile to be a bluetooth Beacons and other devices to connect with it ??
Saludos desde Chile quiero hacer algo parecido pero para un rodillo smart
could we create a native blur component for android /ios both
Great video, thanks!

@@DanRNLab Thanks!
What is the distance range? I really needed this video
Happy to help 👍. For the device in that video it’s range was only maybe 5 or 6 meters. The range depends on the beacon though and differs widely

That’s good news! Thanks for posting it here so others have a reference 🙂
@@DanRNLab your welcome 🙏🏻
hello Dan, will this work on expo as well?
It will only work if you do the setup steps outlined in this video

Hi how can I get major and minor of iBeacons using this react-native-ble-plx
