Need nano 33 ble to support BLE & Wi-Fi

G’day
1st, my apologies for repeating the topic, since the one I’ve found is more than 120 days old, hence unable to edit it.

Have implemented an electronic circuit to control a relay, used to close and open a gate/door/etc. Have used a optocoupler between the nano 33 ble and the relay.
Works fine!

Have used Light Blue BLE / central app on iPhone, to control the nano 33 ble / peripheral
Works fine!

Now I also need the nano 33 BLE to communicate to a mobile device via Wi-Fi

May I ask you please to advise how can I add Wi-Fi support on nano 33 ble?
Note: do not need BLE & Wi-Fi to work at the same time, but need to support both BLE and Wi-Fi, since mobile user might use BLE and other time Wi-Fi

Thanks in advance for any help

you could use esp-01S and my WiFiEspAT library. GitHub - JAndrassy/WiFiEspAT: Arduino networking library. Standard Arduino WiFi networking API over ESP8266 or ESP32 AT commands.
with the S version the wiring ii simple. esp-01S and MKR Zero:

(I tested the library with Nano 33 BLE, but I forgot to take a photo.)

You could have a look at the Arduino Nano 33 IoT. It has BLE and WiFi support (not at the same time). The ArduinoBLE library API is the same but the Nano 33 IoT does not use mbedOS.

I have written an example sketch a while ago that switches between WiFi and BLE. Have a look at reply #6 in the following post.

@Juraj
Thanks for the reply. My preference if for a single board supporting both BLE + Wi-Fi

@Klaus_K: it appears a very good suggestion. Since I have nano 33 ble, I will pursue the application to support BLE and then move to nano IoT

Thanks to all
