Describe the bug
I own some Apple AirTags. When I run toolBLEx on macOS, they are discovered. When I run toolBLEx on Linux, they are not.

Expected behavior
I would expect to see the same devices appear on Linux as on macOS.

To Reproduce
Run toolBLEx GUI on macOS and on Linux in the presence of Apple AirTags.

p.s. I would note that I never have seen the AirTag names listed before when scanning on Linux with "bluetoothctl scan on". So it's possible Apple does something non-standard on macOS (or that BlueZ does something wrong on Linux) that leads to this discrepancy naturally, and it's not a toolBLEx-specific issue. Nevertheless, it'd be good to know if this is actually a toolBLEx issue or not, and if not, why it's occurring.

Hi !

This time I think I've found bug : I'm testing with a Xiaomi LYWSD03MMC (this time with an "atc1441 modified version").

Lots of Advertisement frames are missing and often, no one arrive after the first one, which is not the good one (bytes missing in the end).

I've done screenshots of your soft with in the same time WireShark in background.
At the same second : 19:08:01, Wireshark trace 2 Advertisement frames, and your soft only one, I think a truncated one :
Wireshark end frame (show next screenshot) => A4 C1 38 90 EA 05 00 D6 40 44 0B 0D C3 CE
ToolBLEx end frame (show next screenshot) => A4 C1 38 90 EA 05 (8 bytes missing)

Sometimes, ToolBLEx shows the good frame, but if the truncated frame appears, no more Advertisement frames occurs after (but Advertisement frames continue with WireShark).

I think it's a kind of parsing problem, which also block the next treatment (Maybe there is a link with my last Screenshot : another Advertisement frame arriving very close in time ?)

Please describe the environment you are using:

1. Steam OS 3.5 (Valve modified Arch Linux)
2. Releases tar.gz
3. 0.10

When I launch the program it doesn't start. The program freezes and doesn't respond on the bluetooth logo page. I tried it on two different computers. One of them has Windows 10 and the other has Windows 11. Same results.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am not sure. I see a BLE beacon that is advertising and is connectable but I dont see any ability to let toolBLEx connect.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the ability to connect to a BLE device and through the services, use the notify function to get updates

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I can't find where the data is exported to

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to select where it's exported to

Describe alternatives you've considered
You could print where the data is exported to

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
For devices with known characteristics (not defined in the spec) it would be great to have custom names/tags to be able to easily distinguish them in the list

Describe the solution you'd like
A way to rename a characteristic away from "Unknown" or maybe a tag field in the empty area to the right.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Pen and paper? :D

Additional context

I was thinking the next logical step from here is setting a data type for the known characteristic so you can display converted data when the read is performed.
