Application Specific alert Notification Service server side implementation

Hi,

As I am new to this BLE applications I am unable to get actual flow of implementing  a service to send application specific alert notifications from server which includes characteristics like NEW ALERT and UNREAD ALERT. Please make me clear about how it can be implemented? 

Thank you.

  • Hi, 

    In most cases, the peripheral device is the server. The server device is the device that has data to transmit to the client. The most typical example is the heart rate belt, updating heart rate values to watch or a phone. 

    There is the ANCS example which is the other way around; it is the phone that has the data that it wants to transmit to the ANCS device, and therefore, the peripheral is a client device. Please see this post

    Therefore, I would like to know:

    What do you use as a central server? Do you use the phone?

    If yes, you might need to create your own android app.
