iOS Bluetooth Slow to Send information

On versions iOS 14+, my app which is connected by bluetooth to another device will become slow to write information. This isn't a couple hundred ms or a second or two, but upwards of 10 minutes for it to be sent and then 400 ms to be processed by the device and send its response back. I've confirmed with PacketLogger and with system logs that what commands we are sending with .writeValue are taking over 10 minutes.

This is the timestamp of when we are writing to the device

This is the PacketLogger timestamp of when the phone actually wrote to our device

This doesn't occur immediately, but is intermittent and once it does begin to occur, there's nothing to do to get out of it except for connecting once again to the device. Which, overtime, the issue begins to spring up again. So why is it taking 13 minutes for it to go through the phone and finally being sent?

  • There is a spelling hour but I can't edit, it should be, at the end, 44 minutes not 13
