I’m trying to remove channel.consumeEach from bluetooth communication in my project. What is current best replacement for it? Should I use consumeAsFlow() and then just collect it?

If you're not looking to do a larger refactor to use `Flow` out of the gate, then `consumeAsFlow` (with `collect`, as you described) will work to replace your `consumeEach` usages.

<@U751GPTU7> Thanks for your answer. I did like you said and it is working fine. I'm planning to migrate to Flow, but I've just upgraded from coroutines 1.3.5 to 1.3.8, so removing ConflatedBroadcastChannel will be problematic.

You didn't say if you are working with Bluetooth Classic or Bluetooth Low Energy, if it is Low Energy then you can look at <https://github.com/JuulLabs/kable> to either use, or for implementation inspiration.

_Disclaimer: it's a bit of a self plug, since I'm a contributor to the library._

<@U751GPTU7> I'm working with Bluetooth Low Energy devices. I've already noticed your BLE library. I would consider migrating to your library because the current company solution is basing on an old version of the altbeacon library mixed with the messy implementation of encryption.
