Hello Apple Developer Community,
I represent a team working on an iOS application that interacts with a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module in vehicles. We're exploring advanced functionalities and have a couple of queries:
-
Automatic PIN Handling: Is there a method for our app to programmatically input a PIN for Bluetooth pairing, bypassing the usual popup prompt? We aim to streamline the user experience by eliminating manual PIN entry. -
Programmatic Bond Management: Can our app directly "forget" a paired Bluetooth device without requiring the user to manually do so in the iOS settings? This feature would significantly enhance our app's usability. -
MFi Certification Benefits: Would obtaining MFi certification enable any of the above functionalities, or provide us with additional APIs or capabilities to manage Bluetooth connections more effectively?
We appreciate any guidance or insights you can provide on these matters. Understanding these capabilities is crucial for the development of our application.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Best regards,
