How to Get Bluetooth Device Type / Class

[agmo-chichun]

Describe the bug
I want to determine the bluetooth device type. Whether it's a headset, computer, phone, or others.
I tried comparing the manufacturerData with the assigned numbers from the bluetooth specifications but could not find the matching records.

Anyway we can get the bluetooth device type / class? Or which data should we used to find the matching records from the bluetooth assigned numbers?

To Reproduce

1. Call scan() and getDiscoveredPeripherals() methods
2. Get manufacturerData from the callback result

Expected behavior
Able to get the bluetooth device type / class. (Audio / Computer / Printer / Phone)

Screenshots
Expect can differentiate the device type like Macbook.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Platform: Android / iOS
• react-native-ble-manager version: ^11.5.6
• react-native version: 0.75.3

It's stored in appearance characteristic.
Here's the one-liner that worked for me:

BleMananager.read(peripheralID,"00001800-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb","00002a01-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb")

You can also use nrfConnect app to get the required service id and characteristic id if that's different for your case.
