Hello Edvin,

Thank you for taking some time to reply. This is also an interesting approach. I will try it out too.

Happy Easter!

Hello

Please note that we are very short staffed here in Norway due to Easter Holidays this week (and Monday next week). This will lead to a longer than usual response time. I am sorry for the inconvenience.

I guess I would recommend you to implement this filter yourself in the ble_evt_handler. You can add the event BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT in your ble_evt_handler(), and then, based on what you do in the bsp event handler, you can search for different devices in the advertising reports, and then select whether you want to connect to it using sd_ble_gap_connect(), or not.

Best regards,

Edvin

I actually found a solution for it. In the case of BSP_EVENT_KEY_3 (when a smartwatch disconnects), I added a function to remove all the filters for the scan (nrf_ble_scan_all_filter_remove).

Later, the name filter is set again when either the key 1 or 2 is pressed.

With that strategy, the code is running smoothly and in the way I want.
