I've just downloaded it and haven't yet tried it, but for anyone with a current model ATV that supports apps, it's a free way to have a beacon. At least in theory!
I plan to use it as the arrival/departure beacon for the house.
Things I've found so far:
- The beacon appears to keep broadcasting whether the app is in the foreground or not. Which is good, except if you want to turn it off you have to either power down the ATV or uninstall the app.
UUID, Major & Minor & power are all configurable via a very basic web server (!) the app runs on the ATV. However, getting that web page to load can take a while. Don't give up.
You can't change the beacon name. It doesn't advertise one.
Can't tell yet whether Home Remote is going to work with it, but this is because it's too cold to go out of its range today.
