RE: Thingy:53 BLE

Hi,

The Thingy:53 supports Bluetooth Low Energy, and you can nRF Connect for Mobile to scan, explore, and communicate with Bluetooth Low Energy devices, even to use this app to connect to your Thingy:53 and potentially read sensor data. To reach this goal, you might need to develop a custom application that implements a specific Bluetooth Low Energy service to read the BME68X sensor data. Therefore, I recommend you to have a look at the BLE fundamentals course to familiarize yourself with BLE, as well as the Bluetooth: Peripheral UART sample. Although this blog nRF Connect SDK Bluetooth Low Energy tutorial part 1: Custom Service in Peripheral role is created for the old NCS, it's still worth to read.
