# Testing Pinch SDK with a physical or virtual beacon

This page describes testing the Pinch SDK intallation with a beacon.

Any virtual beacon app may be used.

• Virtual Beacon, iOS
• Beacon Simulator, Android

Using an Android device is recommended due to the ability to emulate eddystone packets.

To test push notifications with PinchSDK, set up a beacon with the following configuration:

• UUID: 55FF336E-DF4B-46C5-A49D-7403A537A109
• Minor: 2
• Major: 99
• Eddystone EID: Enabled (Android)
• TLM: Enabled (Android)

The beacon must run on a different phone than the app with Pinch SDK. After triggering the beacon you should receive a notification in your app.
