Ratings and reviews

An excellent app with a simple interface that I found to be very intuitive. I had it up and running in minutes just by exploring the menus. The macro functionality is especially useful when debugging custom Bluetooth protocols, allowing complex command strings and control characters to be entered quickly. I've only used it for single connections (this terminal to one Bluetooth widget) so I cannot comment on how it behaves in a more complicated environment. But for HC-05 / HC-06 development it is an essential tool for me. No ads. No crashes or glitches. It just works. I liked it so much that I made a donation to the developer. A+
