iOS App passcode (a pop-up is shown on the device) and send passkey to the BLE Device( NRF 52840 ) for the pairing?

[Smit Gamit]

I am trying to connect BLE app to BLE Device ( NRF 52840 ) and for security purpose, I adding passcode (password) / key in the device, once I am going for connecting it will ask for the password.

we set a static PASSKEY in device for the pairing process.

When I connect my device to my peripheral, he asks me a passkey (a pop-up is shown on the device). I want to send this passkey programmatically during the connection.

Hi,

There is no point on sending a passkey uncrypted on-air between the two devices. Why don't you just use 'Just Works' instead?

Can you explain a bit more about what level of security you want for your application and why?

Best regards,

I need this type of functionality in the UART app(iOS App).

I try to achieve Normal Bluetooth pairing functionality in App because of BLE is not visible in normal Bluetooth in iOS (iPhone) due to security reason. 

I have BLE app with UART service, I need paring functionality in UART App which is given in Screenshot.

Hi,

Take a look at the code inside the glucose application example in the SDK. This example implements LESC bonding with passkey. This example can be found in folder \examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_gls and the documentation from the infocenter is found here.
