Nordic's Bluetooth Mesh Mobile Applications Available?

[MANGO]

Hi, I noticed that Silicon Labs announced their Mobile Mesh application for Android and showed a demo video.

I searched Nordic's GitHub page. However, I couldn't find a project related to Bluetooth Mesh mobile app.

Will there be any demo or tutorial for a Bluetooth Mesh mobile app from Nordic?

I lack the experience of mobile applications so I don't know where to start to create one.

-Best Regards, MANGO

Out GATT bearer is under development. Unfortunately it's not available in the current SDK. But we are working on it.

If you need a app on the phone to control the mesh network, for prototyping, you can try to:

• Integrate mesh into a normal BLE application such as ble_app_uart
• Implement some logics to forward the BLE packet/command as a Mesh packet (turn off/on the light for example)
• Use the nRFUART app or Toolbox app on the phone to connect and send BLE commands.

This solution won't be able to do provisioning though.

Yes it mean that we haven't provide the firmware to interface with the phone. But it doesn't mean you can't create your own app on the phone to do provisioning via a node (who act as actual provisioner, but control by the phone app).
