The peripheral is saved. the issue is that when the advertisement data is changed on the device, the ios app could not get the updated value. It seems the ios cached the advertisementdata.


Thanks,

We use changing advertisement data just fine in our iOS app. Are you
keeping a reference to the peripheral that is given to you? you should
get a ton of logs. You need to keep a reference otherwise it discards
that peripheral as per the docs in the header:


     *  @discussion                 This method is invoked while
scanning, upon the discovery of <i>peripheral</i> by <i>central</i>. A
discovered peripheral must

     *                              be retained in order to use it;
otherwise, it is assumed to not be of interest and will be cleaned up
by the central manager.
