Do BTLE device created by SPP using core bluetooth framework still need MFi chip to communicate over bluetooth ios?


I am having non iOS device made from SPP which I want it to communicate with iOS device using core bluetooth framework without using MFI.Is it possible or not?? if not possible then what changes should I make?


Solution

  • You cannot use SPP without going through the MFi program. The Core Bluetooth framework allows you to communicate with BTLE devices using the GATT profile, without MFi certification.

    There are a number of BTLE devices that use a pair of attributes - one for received data and one for transmitted data - to provide data on a serial port that can be connected to an embedded micro controller
