So you're saying that all devices we connect to via CoreBluetooth and read
a characteristic value from will appear under "My Devices" in
Settings/Bluetooth?
Is there any way to *prevent* this from happening?
(Imagining a BTLE-based chat app like FireChat, there'd be an entry in "My
Devices" for every phone you exchanged data with, even if you weren't
communicating with that user directly but just passing on messages to them
to store-and-forward. This sounds less than ideal, you'll have a list of
dozen's of names like "Alice's iPhone", "Bob's iPhone" etc.)
Cheers, Robert.
