About BLESerial HM-10
The dedicated serial terminal for HM-10 and CC2541 Bluetooth Low Energy modules. BLE Serial HM-10 connects your iPhone or iPad directly to any HM-10 or compatible device and lets you send commands and receive data in real time — no cables, no adapters, no fuss. Built specifically for the HM-10 / CC2541 serial service (FFE0 / FFE1), it works out of the box with popular modules and custom BLE firmware alike. **CONNECT IN SECONDS** Scan for nearby HM-10 and CC2541 devices and see their name, advertised services, manufacturer data, and live signal strength at a glance. Tap to connect. Auto-reconnect brings you straight back to your device every time you open the app. **SERIAL CONSOLE** A smooth scrolling console displays all incoming and outgoing data, with sent text highlighted for easy reading. Adjust font size, line endings, and display format (ASCII or hex) to suit your workflow. **SMART ALERTS** Set text patterns to watch for in incoming data. When a match is found, the app notifies you immediately — ideal for monitoring autonomous devices or catching error conditions. **FULLY CONFIGURABLE** Supports both the HM-10 (FFE0/FFE1) and CC2541 service profiles. The service and characteristic UUIDs can be adjusted in Settings for custom firmware. Supports both standard and 128-bit UUIDs. **CLEAN AND FOCUSED** No ads. No subscriptions. No unnecessary permissions. Just a fast, reliable connection to your HM-10 hardware. **WANT MORE?** Check out BLE Serial Pro — it supports nRF52 in the same app, and shows a live console strip so you can see device responses without switching views.
