Android Blue Tooth programs that don't work with the ESP32

Donald Wile asked 3 years ago

I’ve successfully connected my Android tablet to my ESP32 via Blue Tooth using the “Serial Bluetooth Terminal” program. I’m able to control my ESP32 with BT commands that I send. However, I’d like to use a different BT program.
I’ve now tried 4 other BT programs and have succeeded in connecting to the ESP32 using these programs. However, when I send my BT command, the ESP32 does not recognize the command or that a BT command was even sent. The BT commands I’m sending are in ASCII format. I don’t know what to do to make any of these programs work with the ESP32:

  1. BlueTooth Serial Controller 16
  2. Bluetooth Electronics
  3. Arduino BlueControl
  4. Dabble

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated…. Thanks in advance

This issue is now resolved. Apparently all the programs send different termination characters for a BT string. My BT command decoder was looking for ‘\n’ which isn’t sent by any of the programs above, except the “Serial Bluetooth Terminal”.
