Support for Bosch UniversalDistance 40C (similiar to PLR 40 C)

I bought this laser measure to use it with MagicPlan, as it's way better than OEM Bosch app (much better UX, not to mention exporting straight to DXF!)
I thought that the UniversalDistance 40C might be the same as PLR 40 C, just with a different name in Europe. They look identical and actually my local DIY sold them as 40C... When I connect it to the Bosch MeasureOn, it works both on Android and iPad OS. Then if I switch to MagicPlan it even shows up on the list and let me connect to it. The laser icon turns red and the laser on the list has "Connected" status, but the measuring doesn't work -after making measurement there is no change in "numpad pop-up".
Is it possible to add support for this laser? On the outside they seem identical, so maybe they just changed some Bluetooth characteristic and it's an easy fix? Or did they forced users to use their app on purpose? It's a subscription so might be the reason, but it's worse than MagicPlan....

Precise Chipmunk: Hi, thanks for reaching out! Currently, the UniversalDistance 40C is not compatible with magicplan, but we’re working on an update to integrate it. We’re also in the process of adding support for new laser measures, so stay tuned! Thanks for your patience!

Can probably be merged with feature request for the Bosch AdvancedDistance 50C? (https://magicplan.canny.io/feature-requests/p/support-for-bosch-advanceddistance-50c)

Bernd Wolfram is there any update on this? I received this as a replacement for my PLR as part of a warranty exchange. Bosch has also replaced the PLR 40 C with the UD 40 C in sales.

I wanted to know if it was possible to have compatibility with the Bosch “Universal distance 40c” laser rangefinder
Thank you so much

I would also like the laser function to be added to support Bosch UniversalDistance 40C.
Just after connecting Bluetooth, the function doesn't work because it doesn't support it.
