Thanks for the clarification. If you do decide to use the older SoftDevice version make sure to test your application well before deployment.

I understood. Thank you.

It is difficult to use S140 v7.2.0 because update procedure for our products updates only the application, not the SoftDevice.

The compatibility matrix doesn't necessarily show all possible SDK and SoftDevice combinations, just those that have been properly tested.

Thank you for the reply.

I understand that SDK v17.0.2 can be used with S140 v7.0.1.

But why doesn't the Compatibility Matrix show this compatibility?

It should be possible to use SDK v17.0.2 with S140 v7.0.1, yes.

Have you considered upgrading both the SDK and the SoftDevice, so that you can use S140 v7.2.0 instead?
As the note points out this should not require any changes to the application.
