It looks as though this just returns the first component of the name, which needs to have “.local” appended; is this correct?

Yes.

But I also need this to work on iOS, and that function’s not available there.

On iOS I would register a service in `local.` and resolve that. IMPORTANT: You’re looking for NSNetService’s `hostName` property; the `name` property gives you the computer name (equivalent to `SCDynamicStoreCopyComputerName`). Please do file a bug against iOS for not having a better way to get this. It seems like it would be a good fit for NSProcessInfo, which already has a `hostName` property that returns the `gethostname` value (and also supports KVO for various other properties like this). <https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/> Please post the bug number so that I can associate it with this incident.
