I'm implementing an iPhone app which is requiring for best user experience that two phones are placed one next to another. When this happens the NameDrop function starts and interferes with the app behaviour.
There doesn't seem to be any public foundation libraries to allow this. I know there is a support for turning off the functionality in the phone Settings, but this is not desired as I don't want the users to loose this nice iOS feature.
Is it possible to temporary disable the NameDrop while the app is opened?
You are correct that there’s no API to control NameDrop. If you’d like to see that change, I encourage you to file an enhancement request with your case for why such an API is needed.
Please post your bug number, just for the record.
Share and Enjoy
