This may have already been covered, but I searched for quite some time to no avail.
I'm interested in connecting my BT (HC-05) when the page initializes. Though I have accomplished that, my challenge is each BT module you get, it will have a different MAC. So... the one common thing is the "HC-05" at the end of the MAC. Is there a way to call that with coding like I remember when doing Visual Basic. For example.... "Contains" in string "HC-05"?
This app will be open source for a group but there is no way of aligning every app with every bluetooth. Does that make sense? Attached was my effort but it doesn't seem to work. If I type the MAC in it will
For a hint, AdresAndNames is a device list, not a text string.

Gotcha, but what is? Would I have to somehow put the whole addressandname into another list, then query that list?
Try it:
First, the loop extracts each item in the list and looks for the name HC-05 in it. If it finds HC-05 in any item then it saves that item in the "address" variable and stops searching. Then the Bluetooth component connects to the BT module with the address from the variable "address".
