Re: iOS6 access to SMS, email, and call notifications using Bluetooth Smart / BLE
Thanks, this is good to know. However, it seems to be weird that Apple allows external devices to access messages but not apps. But SPP connections still require MFi if I'm not mistaken. (Although Jeff (the thread creator) probably does not need it.) Thanks, Andras On 2012.11.18., at 21:59, Jim Thompson <jim@netgate.com> wrote:
You won't need MFI to implement MAP (or HFP, or any of the other BT profiles which Apple has implemented.)
Existence proof: Metawatch, or any of the car / car stereo companies that implement HFP, MAP, etc.
Not that I know anything about the subject….

It may be useful to note that the MAP is a Bluetooth profile. It is not applicable for BLE operations if you are planning for that. AFAIK there is no approved profile or service for BLE that provides such functionality.
To implement bluetooth services you need to enter the MFi program. For BLE you don't.

The basic goal is to have an iOS app be able to do something when a new text message, email, or call comes in.
Message-Access Profile (MAP) is about notifying a connected car-kit (or any remote device) about a new message. Furthermore, the remote device can send a new SMS via this API to the GSM network, for example. No iOS app involved.
