How can I measure the advertising intervals of a peripheral?

[Malvin2000]

I would like to know how frequently my peripheral is sending advertising and data packets. I've tried using ble-sniffer-osx but it doesn't actually reveal any device names for some reason, so it's not trivial to use. Is it possible to do this using Xcode's Bluetooth Explorer utility to do this?

You don't need a sniffer to check this. A very easy way to check the advertising interval is to use the nRF Connect app on your smartphone. when scanning for devices, the adverising interval will be listed together with the name of the device and RSSI.
