Hi,

It depends a little on your need and on where you want to put down the effort.

If you use a smartphone app such as nRF Connect for mobile, or the desktop version for that matter, it could be a bit time consuming to actually perform the test. (Depending on what you are testing it may be possible to write a script that analyzes the logs, so such a test does not need to be entirely manual work.)

If you need an automated test then pc-ble-driver or the Python / JavaScript variants may be an option. It would require more work up-front, but once your tests are written it should be less effort required for running them.

Regards,
Terje

I've only used the iOS version. Android one probably works fine aswell.

Any known issues with Android nRF Connect?

You could use the iOS nRF Connect app which will allow you to monitor them all, and run filters etc. However it may be a big list to look through if you have 100 beacons running. Depends how often they are advertising.

Or you could use another DK board with one of the ble sniffer examples on it.
