 This example creates and updates a standard Battery Level service containing a single
 GATT characteristic.
 
-Checking for Success
-====================
+The [battery service transmits](https://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/services/Pages/ServiceViewer.aspx?u=org.bluetooth.service.battery_service.xml) a device's battery level in percentage, with 100% being a fully charged battery and 0% being a fully drained battery.
 
-Your BatteryLevel peripheral should be detectable by BLE scanners (e.g. a
-smartphone). To use your phone as a BLE scanner simply install one of the
-following apps:
+Although the sample application runs on a BLE device, it doesn't show the device's real battery level (because that changes very slowly and will make for a dull example). Instead, it transmits a fake battery level that starts at 50% (half charged). Every half second, it increments the battery level, going in single increments until reaching 100% (as if the battery is charging). It then drops down to 20% to start incrementing again.
 
-- For Android, you can get [nRF Master Control Panel](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nordicsemi.android.mcp).
+# Running the application
 
-- For iPhone, you can get [LightBlue](https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/lightblue-bluetooth-low-energy/id557428110?mt=8).
+## Requirements
+
+The sample application can be seen on any BLE scanner on a smartphone. If you don't have a scanner on your phone, please install :
+
+- [nRF Master Control Panel](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nordicsemi.android.mcp) for Android.
+
+- [LightBlue](https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/lightblue-bluetooth-low-energy/id557428110?mt=8) for iPhone.
+
+Hardware requirements are in the [main readme](https://github.com/ARMmbed/ble-examples/blob/master/README.md).
+
+## Building instructions
+
+Building instructions for all samples are in the [main readme](https://github.com/ARMmbed/ble-examples/blob/master/README.md).
+
+## Checking for success
+
+1. Build the application and install it on your board as explained in the building instructions.
+1. Open the BLE scanner on your phone.
+1. Find your device.
+1. View the device's characteristics; the exact steps depend on which scanner you're using.
+1. The value of the battery level characteristic should be incrementing as explained above.
+
+If you can see the characteristic, and if its value incrementing correctly, the application worked properly.
 
-Using the phone app you can connect to the peripheral and observe how the
-battery level characteristic changes.
