Hi,
despite the lack of an official Google API for Bluetooth 4.0 LE, we have made substantial progress on the My bluebuddy App for Android; we now have a beta version based on the Samsung BLE library and we are looking for a couple of beta testers.

More specifically we are looking for divers that have backed our bluebuddy project on Kickstart (or have preorderd a bluebuddy / Tech Buddy) and have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (or Note 2).

Contact me if you are interested.

Hi,
here a short video demonstrating the beta version of the My bluebuddy Android App for the Samsung S3 downloading a log from a bluebuddy.

We noticed that the (not well documented) BLE library provided by Samsung is a bit slower than the Apple's counterversion. But at least we got it working :D

We have several beta testers playing with the App and we expect to release a version on Google Play in a couple of weeks.

Order your bluebuddy (or Tech Buddy) on our online store.

any idea if it will work with the Note 2? the bluebuddy or nitrox?

We think so.
What we know for sure is that the Note 2 uses the same BLE library as the S3.
