Top Pcmac Reviews

It does what it is suppose to do.

By Kiewic (Pcmac user)

It has two flaws: 1. It does not check that iPhone's Bluetooth receiver is on, and if it is off, it seems the app is broken. 2. Once a beacon is updated, it needs to be disconnected and connected before the app can modify it again, otherwise the app shows "connection timeout" errors.
Easy to Setup

By thomamueller (Pcmac user)

I have Roomie Remote and wanted room proximity to switch rooms as I entered. Took all of 10 minutes to set up the rooms. This iBeacon has some hidden potential for many applications. I went with this app USB beacons.

I bought several beacons at my home and try to configure all of them. But the program crash very often, and also sometimes it cannot communicate to some particular beacons.
