Re: Will Apple Approve? - Using Silent Notifications to Initiate A Background BLE Scan
David, could it be that there’s a confusion about the terminology? Notifications (and indications) are sent out by the peripheral to push content to the central without having to repeatedly read a characteristic. Of course, you can write a notification handler that starts a scan. Remember to set the corresponding background-mode keys in Info.plist. And custom service UUIDs are also not a problem. In fact, there are only a few standard profiles yet, and most manufacturers use custom UUIDs for their tasks. Etan On 12.11.2013, at 06:22, David Chu <storywithoutend@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi Everyone,
I'm not worried about the technical side of doing this, but I was wondering if anyone knows if Apple will reject it. From the documentation it says that remote notifications are used to update content. Can it be used to update CBPeripherals as well?
The use case is time-sensitive and the CBUUID is a custom service.
Thanks in advance,
David Chu
