Re: Using GKSession with a third-party device
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: bluetooth-dev@lists.apple.com Hi Daniel GameKit is closed-source and undocumented, like most stuff on iOS which is not described in detail in Apple's otherwise excellent documentation. Basically, GK identifies another iOS device somehow, creates a PAN/BNEP network and then uses Bonjour to find the service listed on the other device. I don't know if the communication that follows is encrypted or not. If you figure anything out, please let me know. :) If rooting your iPhone is an option for your project, you can use btstack.org on the iPhone which provides a regular Bluetooth stack for embedded devices.

Hi,
is there any in-depth documentation about the underlying protocol GKSession implements? I'm asking because I'd like to exchange data between an iPhone and an Linux embedded device via Bluetooth.
Any pointers how to do that? Is this supported at all?
Thanks, Daniel
