title: How do you get the actual name of a Bluetooth device? c++
body: <p>I am new to Bluetooth programming. I am using the Microsoft methods for <a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa362932(v=vs.85).aspx" rel="nofollow">Bluetooth in Windows</a>. I have a heart rate sensor and have figured out how to create service and characteristics buffers to iterate through what services and characteristics that are available under those services.</p>
  
  <p>But how can I get the actual name of the device (like what shows up in regular Windows applications when you pair a device)? For example, I want to get something like "Big Company Heart rate sensor version 6."</p>
  
  <p>I am using C++, Windows 8.1 and Visual Studio 2013. I have tried different solutions on SO, but they show me how to find service specific information.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
