Arduino UNO with ESP8266 and android application

In my project I am sending some variable to arduino through mobile application (built in MIT app inventor) using HC05 bluetooth module and variable gets displayed on serial monitor. Now I want to replace HC05 with ESP8266 wi-fi module.
Is it possible to get same response from ESP8266 as HC05. If so please guide me how to connect ESP8266 with arduino and send variable from mobile application (built in MIT app inventor) and displayed on serial monitor.

Hi!

ESP8266 doesn't have built in bluetooth capability so I think you should choose some ESP32 board.

Should not be hard to move your Uno code to ESP32. Please show us your current code for further help.

Best regards.

agree with @FernandoGarcia - don't bother porting HC-05 and code to an ESP8266 move directly to a ESP32 which has builtin WiFi, Blurtooth classic and BLE - your existing MITapp inventor app should work with minimal modification if any
