2 peripheral ble connection to the same central

[Nir Barniv]

hello,

i am using nrf52832 device with soft device of S132.

i am trying to connect 2 different applications on the same smartphone to the peripheral device. currently only 1 app can connect. in order to connect with other app, i must kill the connected app and open the other app. How can i solve this issue to support 2 different app on the same smartphone to connect to my peripheral device?

Thank you,

Nir Barniv

I think this is just the way that the phone operating systems work.

You haven't said which one you're using, so you'll have go to the appropriate OS documentation & developer resources to find answers.

That part is nothing to do with Nordic.

At the nRF end, you would have to design your peripheral to support 2 connections ...

I am using iphone, i dont think it is related to the os. What parameter should inchange to maintain 2 ble connections on the peripheral?

[Nir Barniv]

when 2 apps try to connect to the peripheral, the firmware crashes. What can possibly be the reason?

Look at the multilink examples.

You need 2 things:

1. to manage 2 connections simultaneously
2. when only 1 connection is active, to keep advertising so that the 2nd can be made

could be anything.

you have some debugging to do ...
