I saw a similar problem, but I do not understand what I need to do #243

[VanGog86]

really no one faced such a problem?

I just tried this, and on my Android phone the app Beacon Scanner finds the beacon and shows the correct UUID, major and minor. This is done on a LilyGO TTGO ESP32 T-Display, with ESPHome 1.16.2.

This is really simple to resolve, ibeacons are broken due to #1844

Broken for me too

I'm seeing the same issue on 1.19.0-dev. Compiles and loads fine, debug output looks fine, including esp32_ble_beacon reporting its major and minor number, but I can't discover it in any of the apps I've tried on iOS.

You are going have to open your own bug instead of using this one. This bug is about receiving beacons, not transmitting them.
