The docs explain the use of long running connections in the case of a BTLE door lock:
When the user leaves home, the iOS device may eventually become out of range of the lock, causing the connection to the lock to be lost. At this point, the app can simply call the connectPeripheral:options: method of the CBCentralManager class, and because connection requests do not time out, the iOS device will reconnect when the user returns home.
This sounds great, but this doesn't seem to work with iOS-based peripherals because of the rotating UDID/CBPeripheral scheme. Hence, in this case you need to advertise and scan continuously. Can anyone comment on this?
