Hi

The custom BLE service example, made by one of my colleagues, is a great tutorial to a multitude of functions, including reading characteristics from various devices/apps. Please check it out, and don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions.

Best regards,

I don't see anything in that tutorial about the Android side - which seems to be what Nahom is asking ?

[Simonr]

I assume he just wants to read characteristics data from an Android phone, and the example explains how to do that (using nRFConnect). Sorry if that's not what you're after Nahom.

Best regards,

Is it just me, or can you also not "@ mention" @Nahom ?

ie, the forum does not automatically make that into a link?

[Simonr]

Not just you. Nahom has probably unchecked the "Include in search When enabled, you will be able to be found via search." box. This will cause you to not be "taggable" in the forum.

Best regards,
