Dear all,

I just discovered Droidscript, purchased the premium version and installed the BluetoothLE plugin. It works like a charm (Nokia 8.1), unfortunately it seems that it doesn't allow setting an advertisement packet.
Do you know if it is planned? It could open great use cases if advertising was supported, especially for micro-bit and Espruino users, it allows the Smartphone to send commands to multiple devices at the same time (broadcasting).

We do have a (premium) Bluetooth Beacon plugin, which has not been documented fully yet,  it does allow you to create a BLE server and set a beacon URL as part of the advertisement data.   This can be used as a method for broadcasting very short amounts of information.  You can also create your own services and characteristics too.

Would this work for your purposes?
