When scanning is enabled, is the advertising data updated? it doesn't appear to be. My device broadcasts a custom advertising packet and its contents change frequently but I don't see the changes in CySmart app. Is there a way to enable dynamic advertisement packet update in CySmart?
Thank you

        Hi Andy, In CySmart App, go to Configure Master Settings -> Scan Parameters -> Duplicate Filter Policy -> Disable Duplicate Filtering for seeing the packets getting updated. Regards, -Madhu Sudhan

Hi, In Android APIs, the duplicate filtering is enabled. So when the advertisement packet change is not reflected when you receive the updated advertisement packet on the phone. The workaround is to keep stopping and starting the scanning at definite intervals. In CySmart App, you have to keep refreshing (swipe down) to see any change in the advertisement packet. In case you are going to develop your own android app that needs to detect change in the advertisement packet, here is an useful link for your reference. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30781563/get-ble-scan-without-filter-duplicate-uuid Regards, -Madhu

Answering my own question: Yes the packet changes can be observed by starting and stopping the scan
