Description

The RadBeacon™ app is the configuration utility for RadBeacon proximity beacons from Radius Networks that support Apple's iBeacon™ proximity services and the AltBeacon proximity services for Android devices.

The RadBeacon app from Radius Networks requires an Android device running Android 4.3 or higher and equipped with Bluetooth 4.0 capabilities.

With the RadBeacon app you can scan for nearby Radius Networks beacons. Once discovered, if the beacon is configurable, you can display each beacon's operating settings and make modifications to those settings.

Scanning for RadBeacons
------------------------------
Scan for nearby configurable RadBeacons by pressing the SCAN button. Each beacon discovered is displayed with the following summary details

- Beacon Model (if available)
- UUID
- Major
- Minor

Reviewing RadBeacon Settings
------------------------------------
Select any RadBeacon in the table. If the RadBeacon is configurable, its detailed settings will be displayed. (If the RadBeacon is not configurable, then an "unable to connect" message will be displayed after approximately 15 seconds.) The settings displayed include:

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

1 ★Worst App. unstable. doesnt detect beacon and even it does, configuration fails.
1 ★You can't read the text...at all on android it's needs bold text...hello
1 ★Horrible. Crashes non-stop
2 ★I've never had this work well given that it's been 13 months since the last release I'd guess this has been abandoned by the manufacturer.
4 ★Sorry about the earlier bad review - user error!
5 ★Works fine! Will be great a message explaning how to set the beacon on setting mode
2 ★Cannot configure the beacons I bought from Radius. What's up with that? Trying to connect always ends in a error message.
1 ★I need to change the frequency of sending a signal, but I can't? Calibrate Measured Power (iOS only) Measure Proximity (iOS only) What is the reason that it is just possible with the iOS app?
3 ★Unstable and unreliable. It crashes every time I pick the "Calibrate" option from the action menu. It will arbitrarily report that my beacons are unconfigurable. And when I pick the same beacon again a moment later, it will be configurable. So it sorta gets the job done for development purposes, but I wouldn't rely on this for production use.
1 ★App does not configure Eddystone properly, "support" is evasive and dishonest regarding ETA for updated and usable version. There are plenty of others beacons to purchase, I'd stay away from Radius until they get their act together. Wasted money on five of their beacons.
1 ★Works for a beacon for a few minutes, then you can no longer connect. You might be able to get one setting change in, but then you run out of time, and can't save or reconnect. (You can see it in a scan, though.)
3 ★Have the same "Calibrate" crashing issue as others.
