I am working on a react native app that uses the react-native-ble-plx package to scan for bluetooth devices. I have run into an issue where the bluetooth functionality will only work on certain android devices.

There seems to be a trend where the app has not worked correctly on Samsung and Google phones. The app will run on the devices but when I get the scanning screen nothing shows up. Some devices are also unable to even download the device because of compatibility issues, however I believe this may be an unrelated issue involving the android sdk.

Has anyone else run into this problem? If so, how did you fix it?

Application Details
Target SDK: 31
Gradle: 7.1.1
react-native: 0.69.5
react-native-ble-plx: ^2.0.3
@config-plugins/react-native-ble-plx: 3.0.0

NOTE: The app was originally in Expo and was ejected to start adding bluetooth capabilities. The @config-plugins/react-native-ble-plx package was used before ejecting.

Have you tried React Native Bluetooth Classic? https://kenjdavidson.com/react-native-bluetooth-classic/ Maybe you won't have any problems with it.

  • I attempted to use this package and encountered the same issue from before. Is there possibly a setting in Android Studio that shows what architectures are supported for the app? – jdm Sep 25 '22 at 23:47
