nrf52 no BLE_GAP_EVT_DISCONNECTED

[Claude]

Hello, using the nrf Toolbox and the UART menu I can connect to my nrf52 and if I navigate back to the initial screen the iPhone disconnects but the GAP_EVT_DISCONNECTED is not generated on my nrf52. There is no EVT_TIMEOUT either. The nrf52 thinks it is still connected thus not advertizing and I cannot re-connect to it. I must reset it.
Is there some variable I can check to detect this state and automatically reset the nrf52? Thanks

iOS can keep the connection at the system level, but usually disconnects after a while if there is no activity.

An iOS app can disconnect, but nRF Toolbox just doesn't do that.

There isn't a variable that you can check, you have to implement this yourself.

Tanks Petter, my next step is to design my app. I will implement a disconnect in it. Worst case would be a keep alive message in the app with a timer on the nrf52 side that is re-triggered by the app.
