• I can only find BLE devices (watches and bands). I'd like to use it to detect smartphones (Android/Iphone).
  
• The grp.write function doesn't work. I'm having trouble debugging this. I tried putting log('debug') in many places and never get results...

Code:

require('ble')

ble.up()

list = {}

known = {

ble.scan(callback)
