Note: WinRT Bluetooth API provides support for BLE advertising data through the manufacturer-specific data field, but it does not fully implement GATT Server functionalities.

Attention: Applications running on Windows platform lower than Windows 10 do not support Bluetooth LE.

Note: Applications running on Windows platform lower than Windows 10 need to pair the devices before discovering BluetoothLE servers. For more information, see Windows Bluetooth FAQ. The WinRT API for Windows 10+ platforms allows to scan for devices without the need to pair them.

Note: For proper beacon detection, Android users must make sure to set up Location Services first.

Windows: Requires Windows 8.1 or later. To discover devices the user hasn't yet manually paired, requires Windows 10. A third-party Windows 10 Polyfill (Chrome Extension + Native Executable) has been created while Windows support is not implemented yet.
