 Note: The smartphone can function as either a client or a server. In this context, it will act as the client, establishing a connection with the Sparrow BLE server.
-For our testing purposes, we'll employ a free application named nRF Connect for Mobile, developed by Nordic Semi. This app is available on both Android ([[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nordicsemi.android.mcp&hl=en_US| Google Play Store]]) and iOS (App Store). To install the app, simply go to the Google Play Store or App Store, search for "nRF Connect for Mobile," and proceed with the installation.

+==== Sparrow BLE Service ====
+Here are the steps to create an BLE peripheral with an Environmental Sensing BLE service with temperature, humidity, and pressure, characteristics:
+  - Create a BLE device (server) with a name of your choice (we’ll call it ESP32_BME680, but you can call it any other name).
+  - Create an Environmental Sensing service (UUID: 0x181A).
+  - Add characteristics to that service: pressure (0x2A6D), temperature (0x2A6E) and humidity (0x246F)
+  - Add descriptors to the characteristics.
+  - Start the BLE server.
+  - Start advertising so BLE clients can connect and read the characteristics.
+  - Once a connection is established with a client, it will write new values on the characteristics and will notify the client, every time there’s a change.
+Copy the following code to the Arduino IDE, modify it and upload it to your board.

+Upload the code to your board. After uploading, open the Serial Monitor, and restart the Sparrow by pressing the RST/EN button.
+You should get a //"Waiting a client connection to notify..."// message in the Serial Monitor.
+Then, go to your smartphone, open the nRF Connect app from Nordic, and start scanning for new devices. You should find a device called **Sparrow_BME680**, this is the BLE server name you defined earlier.
+Connect to it. You’ll see that it displays the Environmental Sensing service with the temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics. Click on the down arrows to activate the notifications.
+Then, click on the second icon (the one that looks like a " mark) at the left to change the format. You can change to unsigned int for all characteristics. You’ll start seeing the temperature, humidity, and pressure values being reported every 10 seconds.
+===== Web BLE Application =====
+Follow the tutorial [[https://randomnerdtutorials.com/esp32-web-bluetooth/| here]] to learn how to create a Web application that connects directly to your Sparrow ESP32 board. You can use the web app just like a normal phone application to send and receive information over BLE from your device.
+<note important>Web BLE is not currently supported by iOS phones </note>
+Build the application in the tutorial and deploy the web page in your GitHub account.
+=== Assignment ===
+<note> Modify the web page and the BLE app to display the BME680 sensor data (temperature, pressure and humidity). </note>
