Can I see that iOS device changes own address ?

Hi, iOS device uses random private resolvable type changes own bluetooth address address every 15 minutes as long as I know. Can I see the transittion just to change the address before and after on wireshark by nRF sniffer ? If not possible, how can I test to see the point(moment) iOS changes own bluetooth address ? Since, I would like to test whether own my application for nRF51 device works on iOS device or not while keeping a connection. Thanks.

  • When connecting, the iOS device and the nRF51 use the device address (which is what changes every 15 minutes). Once in a connection, the link layer Access Address is used, and that address does not change for the lifetime of this particular connection. After the connection is established, your nRF51 application should not be affected by the iOS device changing device address.
