    Write an app to transfer data from bluetooth devices

    I'm tasked with developing an iPhone app whose first bit of functionality is to connect to a bluetooth transmitting device (our company product),
    receive data from that device, and use that data to do other important things.


    Bullet points: - search for bluetooth device - connect to bluetooth device - receive data only from the device


    Tips/advice?

    Apple doesn't allow any Bluetooth device to connect to an iOS device. To connect, the device must be MFi compliant.

    You can get more information here: https://developer.apple.com/programs/mfi/
