Can I use nrF51822 with external accessory framework in iOS and ship it to AppStore too?

I want to communicate nRF with an iOS app through lightning port. What other things should I keep in mind? Please offer your suggestions!

Hi Vetri,

We would need your MFI license to discuss about communication with lightning port. I suggest you to open a case on our support portal on the MyPage section on our website.

Hi Vetri,

I understand, I can say it should be possible for nRF51 to communicate via Lightning port.

But still that's all I can say. You still need to get the specification of the Lightning port and it only be provided when you have MFI to access Ipod Accessory Protocol. I suggest you to join the MFI program and request the spec from Apple.
