[Development] Qt Bluetooth iOS

[Blasche Alexander]

Hi,

It doesn't matter by what Qt module the feature is provided, the profile is not supported by iOS/Apple. For details on supported profiles see:

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647

Hello,

Actually I am mostly interested in Serial Port Profile over Bluetooth. Maybe this should be implemented as part of Qt Serial Port insted of Qt Bluetooth?

Hi,

One more update on this topic. After some investigations yesterday it turns out that iOS doesn't actually have a classic Bluetooth API. There is a Bluetooth Low Energy API since iOS 6 but this would require the Bluetooth Low Energy (BtLE) feature first. While BtLE is currently in the works, there is no firm target release yet (ready when it's ready).

The only other Bluetooth related API I could find was related to the External Accessory Framework. An accessory may happen to be a Bluetooth device but that's not really the same.

Of course MacOSX and the windows flavours have some Bluetooth opportunities.

Hi,

Sorry to disappoint, but to the best of my knowledge there is no ongoing port for iOS at this point in time.

Hello,

Is anyone working on an iOS backend of Qt Bluetooth? I could use it but I cannot find any information at all.
