I was searching the forum, and couldn't find anything, was wondering if an app exists to periodically check the bluetooth radio?

What I had in mind would look to see if there is an active connection (i.e. headset) at specified intervals, and if not it would turn off the bluetooth radio to help save battery.

If this app exists, please point in the right direction, thanks :)

I'm looking for such en application too.
But the perfect way to save BT-Power would be this:

- BT ist turned off
- the App switches BT on and searches for paired Devices(free Interval, different Intervals for different times of the day/week i.e. every Morning(7-7:30) on workdays BT-Search-Interval is 1 Minute)
- If a paired device is found you can select per device if Bluetooth stay on or switches back off (i.e. Car-Hands-free: stays on, Home-PC: switches off)
- If a paired Device disapears the app will switch BT off
- If Bluetooth is switched on manually the App won't change this state

And of course it has to work with both BT-Stacks (Broadcomm/Widcomm and M$)
