nRF52840 Central

[Ashu@123]

I am a beginner and want to know how to connect the nRF Connect app with BLE Blinky Central program which is there in nRF52840 Development Kit.

That is a combination I have not looked into. It is more common that the phone is the central device, while the nRF52 is the peripheral device, for instance the nRF52 is typically a low power device, thereby it typically is a peripheral device.

I have done that before, where nRF52840 DK is a peripheral device and the Mobile phone is acting as a central. Now I want to learn nRF52840 DK as a central and we have a possible facility by nRF Connect app as Advertiser section so why not then.

I suggest to get a second nRF52840-DK to act as a peripheral.

Looking at the github repositories for nRF Connect it looks to only support advertising in peripheral mode:
