nRF52832 to mobile phone via BLE

Hi

Can anyone tell me which example in SDK to use to send data(a simple text message) from nRF52832 board to an Android Phone. I have nRF Connect and nRF Tools applications installed on the phone.

Thanks in advance.

  • Just to give more details, let's say we have 2 nRF52832 Development Kits. We can program one device as a client and another as a server and send the data between the two devices. Correct me, if I have understood in the wrong way. So, we are basically replacing one of the DKs with a mobile phone with nRF apps. So, in this scenario, which example do we use? I do not understand why should we use UART? Can we not simply send a normal text message that I can manually put in code?

  • Hi Sai, 

    The UART example is just an example of sending proprietary data over BLE. You don't need to use UART you can send anything you want with the example. 
    Another example you can have a look is the blinky example. In that example we send only 1 byte. But you can modify it to send more data. 

    You can download nrfBLinky app from google Play/App Store and source code is available on Github.
