About GetBlue Data Acquisition Tool APK
Table Of Contents
Description
GetBlue provides automated data acquisition and manual device communication for Bluetooth SPP devices, serial USB devices, TCP/IP, HTTP and camera barcode-scanners. The full version of GetBlue automatically collects data from Bluetooth SPP, serial USB, TCP/IP, HTTP and camera scanners in the background. The captured data is forwarded to adjustable target devices, files, online spreadsheets or even inserted into 3rd party applications. Bi-directional device communication is supported, manual communication functions for reading and writing data are available as well.DETAILS
The data acquisition app GetBlue captures data from an adjustable data source and forwards it to any supported target. The following devices and protocols are currently available:
◾ Bluetooth SPP and Bluetooth RFCOMM
All serial Bluetooth devices supporting the Serial Port Profile (like SPP or RFCOMM barcode scanners) can be used. GetBlue supports Bluetooth client and Bluetooth server mode, thus any Bluetooth-enabled device as well as PC connections are possible.
◾ Serial USB
May not work on some Android devices. FTDI and Prolific chipsets are supported.
◾ TCP/IP Socket
Any device providing a TCP/IP socket.
◾ HTTP
HTTP GET and HTTP POST requests with adjustable parameters.
◾ Camera scanners
Any external camera scanner app can be used.
◾ Manual data input
Device commands can be entered manually
Captured data can be forwarded via Bluetooth, USB, TCP/IP and HTTP to any target device. In addition the collected data can be
◾ displayed (HEX or ASCII)
◾ stored locally in a file (including time-stamps)
◾ uploaded to a Google Docs Spreadsheet
◾ or inserted into any app on your smartphone via the GetBlue soft-keyboard (keyboard wedge operation).
APPLICATION SCENARIOS
GetBlue is used as keyboard wedge (scanning barcodes with a Bluetooth scanner and injecting the bar code data into any app), as automated data logger (e.g. uploading captured data to a Google Docs spreadsheet or storing it into a local file), for controlling Bluetooth devices, as low-cost barcode scanner connected to a PC, etc.
KNOWN PROBLEMS
Some Android devices use a faulty Bluetooth firmware and therefore, SPP communication might not work reliably. The following procedure may help:
◾ Switch off Bluetooth and stop all related apps
◾ Reboot your device
◾ Turn Bluetooth back on
◾ Re-connect it to your device
◾ Use GetBlue

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 ★This app is great in concept but has failed to deliver for us. TEC-IT should really remove Google Sheets as a target for scans in the description. Google's session policy causes the link to fail and scans do not upload. We built a project solution around this product and now are having to back track. I tried to work with support to address the issue, but they have no fix and no ETA.
5 ★I stumbled on GetBlue years ago and it hasn't lost its usefulness. So many times in development I'm thinking of how to prototype data flow, and envisioning having to make a web app to handle data, etc. Then I will remember to check GetBlue and the functionality is already there. For instance, we use QR codes on our units that link to the unit's website. I need to quickly keep track of units as they go out the door. I was starting to write a Node app, and then thought of GetBlue, and sure enough, I can easily log the web addresses to a Google Sheet, and I don't have to spend the time building this temporary app. This is like a Swiss Army knife for people that are developing projects where data is moved between sources.
5 ★Great, so much better than my own BT coding attempts
5 ★I am using this application on a Motorola a855, and it does all they say it will do. I have communicated with the company with a user specific challenge, and it was handled quickly and professionally. It is worth all I payed for. Highly recommended!
4 ★It works well and is fairly flexible but not yet flexible enough to do what I need.
4 ★Would be helpful if there was option to turn BT on from within the application and to clear history.
5 ★Can collect data from anywhere and store it in the google cloud.
5 ★Not only is GetBlue highly flexible, but it connects very reliably. Support is also *very* responsive.
5 ★Simple and easy. I use an ROV BT scanner, works excellent. Support and feedback ! ! ! Trough FB It's great!
5 ★The best BT utility on the market. Great performance AND excellent tech support!! Get IT!
