Connecting ESP32 to WIFI without programming

Projects Programming
1

Hi,

I am trying to connect an ESP32 to wifi but I have to do it so I don't have to add any credentials to the code.
The way my system works:
I have an app that connects to an nRF52 micro via BLE. The user will introduce the network SSID and Password. The ESP32 will have to connect to that same network.

I have tried connecting the nRF52 via I2C with some complications with the format, separating ssid and password...
I have also tried SmartConfig but it's not really convenient.
I'm a bit stuck with this and started to overcomplicate it, so I need some help (examples, ideas...)

Thank you.

esp32 can do BLE

Why don't you take a step back; simplify things; delete all the BLE, nRF, I2C, etc. stuff; and first see if you can just get the ESP32 to connect to wifi by giving it credentials via Serial from the Arduino IDE on your computer.

If that works, then it should be a small additional step to add the other stuff.

During testing you may need to delete all saved credentials (SSIDs and pswds). There's a way to do that...google it.

I know but I can't use it for this purpose.

I thought of connecting the tablet to an AP generated by the ESP32, and then providing the esp32 with the ssid and password I want. I have to check if the app can connect to this AP and then to the wifi without disturbing too much the user.

Sorry, but your project description and problem description are becoming even less clear. :confused:
