Re: [web-bluetooth] iBeacon is not detecting

This seems like an issue with the Chrome implementation rather than a 
spec issue. In the future please use 
[http://crbug.com/new](http://crbug.com/new).

The website you point to tries to scan for all the devices by 
generating a list of name prefixes and scanning for them. This causes 
devices with no name to be filtered out.

Currently the Chrome Implementation only supports scanning for Service
 UUIDs and name/name prefix. iBeacon advertises Manufacturer Specific 
Data so for now there is no way to find it. The Spec does support 
filtering out by manufacturer data (and it even supports scanning for 
all devices) but that hasn't been implemented in Chrome yet. You can 
see a list of what's implemented in Chrome 
[here](https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth/blob/master/implementation-status.md#gatt-communication-api).
