nRF proximity was originally made for iOS 6.0. Since we have the proximity app in nRF toolbox we are not maintaining it any more. One of the main issues is that the app is using CB_Peripheral.UUID which was deprecated after iOS 7.1. There are other issues as well. Regardless I recommend following Hungs advice and use the proximity app from nRF toolbox. You can remove the other apps and modify this to suit your needs if wanted.

Hi Julian,

The nRFProximity app is deprecated and we stopped maintaining it for a while.

Please use the Proximity profile inside the nRFToolbox app instead. I just tested and it worked.

I'm also curious to understand why nRFProximity stopped working from iOS9.1. I will update here if our developers find something.
