Review summary

MIDI BLE Connect is praised for enabling consistent Bluetooth MIDI connections on Android devices spanning multiple brands and versions, including problematic Android 13. It's especially appreciated for stable connections with apps like FL Studio Mobile and handling SysEx data properly. Some users report the app stops working on their devices or that other music apps disconnect after connection. Location Services must be enabled for the app to function correctly. Overall, it's a vital tool for Bluetooth MIDI users on Android, although enhanced troubleshooting features would be beneficial.

Pros

Consistently reliable and stable; users report it works without hiccups over years.
Enables connection of various MIDI Bluetooth devices to Android apps, including brands like Korg, Roland, M-Vave, and others.
Helps maintain Bluetooth MIDI connections longer than native solutions, allowing better performance with apps like FL Studio Mobile.
Supports SysEx transmission properly, important for advanced MIDI users.
Works with Android 10+ devices and solves compatibility issues, including on devices where native MIDI BLE support is broken.

Cons

Some users experience connection issues or the app not working anymore, especially on newer Android versions like Android 13.
Certain Android apps disconnect MIDI devices after some time or do not respond even when connected via this app.
Users must enable Location Services for the app to properly scan and find Bluetooth MIDI devices, which may confuse some users.
Latency can still be an issue with some apps, but this may not originate from the app itself.
Requests for additional features like Bluetooth logging to help troubleshoot disconnects.

2024-10-02	Fe*****	Worked right away with a M-Vave Wireless Midi dongle, it let me send patches to my Volca FM with no issue - yes sir, it does SysEx properly! Bang up job all around

2024-06-20	Ma*****	Makes my Korg Nanokey Studio work flawlessly with my phone. Without the app, FL Mobile will drop the Bluetooth midi connection within 2-5 minutes, while this manages to keep it alive, and let's me use the keyboard without any issues. Huge thanks to the developer for releasing this for free for all of us music lovers out there.

2024-03-21	Fi*****	This is the only app that made Bluetooth MIDI work on my Android 13 phone. Apparently Google broke MIDI BLE in this version, yet somehow this app makes it work. Simply Piano shows quite a bit of latency (almost 0.5s) but that might not be a problem of the app. Awesome tool either way!
