Can the application support beacon simulators? #167

The app / library will work with every advertising frame, as long as the advertised data matches the beacon specification.

You can see / adjust the performed checks in the meetsSpecification method (e.g. in IBeaconAdvertisingPacket).

I'd say it depends on the beacon simulator application if they manage to advertise valid iBeacon or Eddistone frames. A good application to inspect advertising data is nRF Connect.
