nRF Connect Desktop doesn't close connections on exit

[awneil]

When I close the desktop application, BLE connections do not disconnect.

I had to unplug the dongle.

Is this intended/expected behaviour ?

Hi Andrew

No, this is not intended. I have reported this internally, and someone will look at this soon. Thank you for sharing your concern! If you have any additional information you'd like to share, please don't hesitate to do so.

You're welcome!

Is there any additional information you require?

Nothing specific as of now.

Thanks,

Hi Andrew

I got an update today regarding this. It's not entirely correct that this is "not intended" behavior as I communicated in my initial reply, as we haven't specified the intended behavior as it could be a use-case to let the devices remain connected. I'm sorry about any confusion!

The best explicit action you can do is to disconnect the peer in the main view of the app before closing the application altogether.

Best regards,

Simon

Do you have any particular use case(s) in mind, or is this just keeping your options open?
