Android BLE for direct advertisment.

Hi, I am trying to write a small android app to send direct advertisement to particular device. i am using 0001 for direct advertisment. But when i advertise the data, message is received for all the devices. can you let me know or share an example for this in android.

Thank you Rohit Iti

There's no such thing as directed advertisement with data. The ADV_DIRECT_IND mode's payload consists only of the advertiser and initiator's device addresses.

Nor do I know what you mean by 'i am using 0001 for directed advertising', either way, if you are actually setting up ADV_DIRECT_IND then you shouldn't have any data in it. So if you do, I wonder if you are actually in the correct advertising mode.

Advertising packets are received by all devices. Advertised data is public.

Ok. So you mean to say that there is no such thing like to send packets to only one particular device. Every message will be broadcasted , based on the advertising types the connection request will be accepted . correct ?
