BluetoothView

BluetoothView version 1.70, developed by NirSoft Freeware, is an excellent tool for monitoring nearby Bluetooth devices. This tiny utility, with a program file size of just 49 KB, runs silently in the background, efficiently detecting Bluetooth activity and providing detailed information such as Device Name, Bluetooth Address, Major and Minor Device Types, and timestamps for first and last detections. BluetoothView.exe, the executable file, can be easily downloaded and is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and 11.

Optimized for users who frequently switch between Bluetooth devices, BluetoothView makes it simpler to track and connect to devices compared to the default Bluetooth detector on many computers. In addition to visual notifications via taskbar balloons, users can opt for audio alerts, making it a useful application when multitasking.

Key features include the ability to hide paired devices to avoid clutter from inactive connections, enhancing user experience. BluetoothView falls under the Internet & Network category, with a focus on Network Tools. Older versions like 1.6, 1.5, and 1.0 are also available for users who may need them.

Pros:

• Small file size
• Runs seamlessly in the background
• Provides detailed Bluetooth device information
• Offers customizable notification options (visual and audio alerts)
• Hide paired devices feature

Cons:

• May be redundant for users with efficient built-in Bluetooth detectors
• Limited to Windows operating systems

Overall, BluetoothView is a valuable, free tool, especially for heavy Bluetooth users who need an efficient way to monitor and connect with multiple devices.
