The ESP32 can do both WiFi and BLE, using a single antenna. But I'm having trouble finding out whether it is possible to use both at the same time. Is the ESP32 a "WiFi+BLE" chip, or an "either WiFi or BLE" chip?
By "at the same time" I mean something like doing both SoftAP and BLE beacon broadcasts.
This should theoretically be possible, but in practice depends on a lot of things (radio frontends, amplifier design, SDK capabilities, etc).

Yes, the plan is to support both at the same time.
Re: WiFi *and* BLE
The chip will switch between WiFi and Bluetooth very quickly so it will appear to be simultaneous.

Re: WiFi *and* BLE
Hi guys,
sry to bump up this old post, but as i have a similar question, so i thought i'd ask here
https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/2619
Is this issue indicating that BLE and softAP co existence does not work ? If so, what are the plans to make it work ?
If it already works, are there any examples that show the possibility of making both work at the same time ? thx
