### Caveats

BLE peripheral mode was introduced in Android 5.0 Lollipop. Due to hardware chipset dependency, some devices don't have access to this feature. Here's a non-exhaustive list of devices that support BLE peripheral mode at the time of writing: Nexus 6, Nexus 9, Moto E 4G LTE, LG G4, Galaxy S6.
