think of it like this

if this unit is the Master its is Out-- if it is the Slave it is In → MOSI AKA TX

or

if this unit is the Master its is In – if it is the Slave it is Out → MISO AKA RX

This is my view.
I don’t think the nRF52840 is Slave in this situation. I checked the signal with a digital scope and it was working as Master.
You will have to find an SPI library for Slave or, if you can’t find one, build one yourself from scratch. Software skills are required.

Hello, I have encountered the same problem as you. The Seeed Studio XIAO nrf52840 cannot be used as an SPI slave. Have you found a solution to this issue?

No I haven’t. I have moved to new hardware.
