BLE does NOT require MFi membership.
MFi is needed for MFi certified devices only.

Hi
Everyone,
We
understand that in order for iOS to show the system prompt
which asks a user to install a companion app, the HW vendor
needs to be an MFi member.
However,
we don't quite understand the exact
technical requirements. Hopefully, somebody from Apple can
clarify:
- Is this
functionality available for BLE only connections, too? Or
does it require BL Classic?
- What
exactly is required MFi wise?
- How does
the accessory, given that it is a single-mode BLE device,
tell iOS which app to install? E.g. how is the bundle or
App Store ID transmitted?
Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
