Hello, please I need to clarify a question about Arduino Nano 33 IOT, is it possible to automate my home and send information to my arduino with the local network without having internet? I usually have a lot of connection problems with the internet service but at least I want to automate by wifi locally, at the same time is it possible to have wifi and ble available to receive information from my android and execute functions?

You can connect the Arduino Nano 33 IoT via WiFi to your home network and only send information between the Arduino and whatever devices you have in your home e.g. PC, MAC, Raspberry Pi or another Arduino.
You can also create a separate WiFi network and then connect with your mobile phone, tablet, PC to this network and open a local web page for instance. Once you installed the WiFiNINA library for the board you can use the following example
File -> Examples -> WiFiNINA -> AP_SimpleWebServer
You cannot use BLE and WiFi at the same time, but with some effort you can switch between them. This will take a little time. I have posted an example in the following post reply #6.
