nRF Connect for Mobile scans and tests Bluetooth Low Energy devices from a phone.
nRF Connect for Mobile is Nordic Semiconductor's mobile application for examining Bluetooth Low Energy devices during development and testing. It scans nearby devices, parses broadcast advertisement data, and displays signal information. Developers can connect to compatible devices and inspect their services and characteristics.
The application supports interacting with device characteristics, recording events, and testing firmware update workflows. Its Android and iOS versions provide a portable interface for debugging Bluetooth hardware without dedicated desktop equipment. Nordic documents separate platform-specific capabilities, while its semiconductor products and development kits remain distinct offerings.
