We are working towards the Nordic Bl653-dvk Will any sniffer tool is available to help in analyzing packets from BLE- Mesh node to Mobile App.

Please kindly suggest or provide the links for testing for analyzing the packets.

Hi, If you're using our mobile mesh libraries (iOS, Android) they print bunch of data in the logger. The iOS library allows to connect a custom logger delegate, and sends logs with different categories matching layers. The Android one prints to LogCat.

If you want a sniffer, the Ellisys sniffer we have provides option to decrypt mesh messages, and is a great debugging tool. Highly recommend, but I guess it's very expensive.

It is possible to do a mobile sniffer for mesh on Android for the ADV Bearer, as the API allows to get raw data from the scanned package. We have such task in our backlog.
