Hi Bernd
Please check the Class of Device of your device. iOS only shows devices that it supports natively in the Settings, so you could pick 0x2540 (keyboard) or a headset - it will later do a SDP query and detect your wireless iapd service nevertheless (I assume). I've recently wondered why the Duo Gamer controller (a MfI device) shows up for a split second as headset. Maybe that's why. I'm not a member of the MfI, but I assume the CoD to use should be documented, too.
Best
Matthias

Isn’t it possible to do it the other way around, so let the iPhone search for the Bluetooth device within Settings/Bluetooth and then start the BT-RF connection from there ?
