CLUSTER BLUETOOTH-CHARACTERISTICS-ENERGY · 19 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-09-08

Bluetooth Low Energy mobile utilities

This cluster consists of mobile apps for scanning, analyzing, connecting, and bridging Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices, often targeting developers, security researchers, and smart-home enthusiasts. The 12 dated entries before the index are scattered across 2012–2026 with no consistent release pattern. Traction leaders by activity signal are LightBlue®, ble-firebase-gateway, and Schussel, each with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 19 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
