This feature adds Swipe to refresh feature on the Scanner screen. Whenever you get bored with devices discovered previously, just pull the list down to see them in slightly different order moment later. Additionally, we did our best to hide devices that for sure do not support LED Button Service, like beacons or iPhones. If your phone is equipped with a physical keyboard, now it should be easier to navigate around.
