This is the most feature rich and smartest BLE scanner anywhere
I've worked with BLE devices now for about a decade, focused on the engineering side. This app is the very best I've seen and used, not to mention the team behind it is truly on it ball and always making key and important improvements. Most apps you only see bug fixes and updates to allow for New OS. But real advances are rare. These guys are always innovating so keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!

We need macros in iOS version
I love your app, I personally think is good and it works properly, but we would love to have macros as we do have in the android version. Thanks

Crashing fixed as of v1.8.6
UPDATE: Looks like this was the same issue others were having (#27 on gh), latest update seems to have addressed it. @nordic, thanks for the quick fix, sorry I wasn’t more responsive with crash dumps, was out of country for a few weeks, glad others were able to help debug. OLD TEXT: The app immediately crashes and closes when opening. iOS 11.3.1, iPhone 8
