Yes, you can definitely serve as peripheral and connect to other peripherals at he same time. One limitation to this is the device limitations. Please download BLE central,Peripheral Checker app tıo make sure your device supports BLE peripheral, BLE central or classic bluetooth modes.

Although, some blogs suggests that it works with Android ver > 4.3.3, in my experience, we could make it working on Android ver 6.0. According to my knowledge, it should also work on Android ver > 5.0

I used Immediate Alert Service example and merged with Android BLE example without any issue. Now I can connect to my smart phone to send data from Smart Discover app (on Google Play), and my device controls to other BLE device.
