You could use any of the BLE apps on the App Store, PlayStore.

I had to look deep in to the source code to figure out.

You should send 'ssid:(ssid name)' and then, 'passwd:(passwd)', and then finally 'confirm'.
This will trigger the connection to WiFi AP.

I used nordic's nRF Connect app.

Using the "nRF Connect" app, I can't do anything on my iPhone, except connect and maybe send a hexadecimal number. I tried other BLE apps, to no avail.
Anyone can help me out?

Ok I think I figured it out.
There is an app for macOS and iOS called LightBlue, you can use it to send strings as well.

Just like seopyoon said, using the app send the following strings to the 0xFF01 service:
1) 'ssid:<ssid name>'
2) 'passwd:<passwd>'
3) 'confirm'

The ESP32 will then proceed to connect to the wifi AP.

Hey guys,

Sorry if I'm reviving a bit of an old thread here.
I'm just curious how you guys figured out to send:
1) 'ssid:<ssid name>'
2) 'passwd:<passwd>'
3) 'confirm'

I'm trying to figure out how you got that from the Blufi example code, I can't seem to find where those strings are in the source code.

It looks like the "blufi" profile has gone through a huge update recently and definitely doesn't work in the way described in this thread anymore.

Unfortunately there is no documentation at all and I don't know (yet?) how it is supposed to work exactly.

Hello, I was the one who suggested the above way to connect. And yes, I have recently retried the code with the updated example code, and it doesn't work at all.

It doesn't have any README related to the recent modifications. I have NO idea how to use bluetooth to bootstrap wifi anymore.

ESP team please help.

The APK is here:

https://github.com/EspressifApp/EspBluf ... r/releases

You'll need to sideload it on Android (don't forget to disable Unknown Sources on Settings after installing the app). At least in my case I had to download it on my computer and transfer through USB to the phone as it seems Chrome on Android doesn't launch APK's anymore (a good thing).

Also useful is this PDF (where I got the APK URL):
