Android BLE Implementation

Use this skill to implement Bluetooth Low Energy features in an Android app using the correct BLE model: scan, connect, discover GATT structure, transfer data through services and characteristics, and clean up correctly.

When to Use This Skill

• Add BLE support to an Android app.
• Implement BLE scanning and peripheral selection.
• Connect to a GATT server from Android.
• Read, write, or subscribe to characteristic updates.
• Review an Android BLE feature for permission, lifecycle, scanning, or GATT design problems.

Do Not Use This Skill When

• The target device uses Classic Bluetooth RFCOMM sockets.
• The feature depends on sustained socket-style streaming rather than GATT services and characteristics.

In those cases, switch to the Classic Bluetooth workflow instead of forcing a BLE device into the wrong transport model.
