About this app
nRF Blinky is an application developed targeting an audience of developers who are new to Bluetooth Low Energy. This is a simple application with two basic features.
- Scan and connect to any nRF5 DK containing the Nordic Semiconductor’s proprietary LED Button Service.
- Turn on/off LED 1 on the nRF DK
- Receive Button 1 press event from a nRF DK on the nRF Blinky Application.
The source code for this application is available on GitHub on the following link:
https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-nRF-Blinky
Note:
- Android 5 or newer is required.
- Location permission is required on devices running Android 5 - 11. This app will not use the location information in any way. Starting from Android 12 the app is requesting Bluetooth Scan and Bluetooth Connect instead.

Hi, is your peripheral advertising with Blinky service UUID? Is it the same as https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/Android-nRF-Blinky/issues/18?
Can we please continue in #18?

Worked like a charm, and responsiveness is great too. Used with nRF52840-Dongle (rev 1.2.0) programmed with the nRF5 SDK's (v17.0.2) ble_app_blinky example for PCA10059, and the s140 nrf52 7.2.0 softdevice
