Is there a Nordic app that can act as peripheral?

Hi, I have an application where first nrf51822 would act as central, a second nrf51822 would act as peripheral, a third nrf51822 would act as a peripheral. I found that a mobile phone can act as a peripheral (from android lollipop onwards or i4s onwards). Do you have a Nordic app (similar to master control panel) that acts as a peripheral so that I can start to play around with it? Thanks

  • nRF Connect (new name of Master Control Panel) apps can set-up GAP Peripheral mode (if underlying phone API supports it - be careful, fact that Android phone is v5.x or higher doesn't automatically mean it supports GAP Peripheral role, it's simply HW dependent and each manufacturer can decide to enable/disable, see e.g. LG Nexus 5 which even on Android 5 and 6 doesn't support it).
