I understand that the Nearby Interaction framework is available on watchOS 8+, and I want to make a watch app that displays distance estimation between multiple watches (not iPhones) using UWB through Nearby Interactions.
I see in the documentation that an iPhone can discover multiple device "discovery tokens" and create NISessions with them using the Multipeer Connectivity framework, but it looks like the Multipeer Connectivity framework is not available on watchOS?
So, how might I make an independent watch app that can discover multiple nearby watches and setup NISessions with them?
Thanks!

Hi,
The nearby interaction app provided by apple gives me a range of just 15m and frequent data stops with my UWB hardware. However, the NXP Trimensions AR app gives a distance of more than 30 m with the same hardware non stop.
Could anyone help me solve this issue
Thank you

Hi all! Do you know if there is a sample project in Swift that I can use to detect obstacles using the Ultra Wideband?
Hi,
We try to geolocate with UWB signal an app in background with NXP UWB Kit.
We use Nearby Interaction method in background
Apple documentation indicate to use this class: NINearbyAccessoryConfiguration
but we have this error when we try to create the session: NIERROR_ACCESSORY_PEER_DEVICE_UNAVAILABLE_FAILURE_REASON
any body can help us to use successfully this functionnality ?
