Bluetooth Devices that work with nRF Toolbox for iOS

Morning

I was just wondering if anyone knows which types of Bluetooth devices work with the nRF Toolbox for iOS and where to buy them - proximity etc.

  • Hi. As @awneil writes in his comment, some devices will work and some will not. That depends on how the manufacturer has implemented the product. The proximity video you are referring to is a promotion of the iPhone app and not a specific proximity device. The app is intended to be used for development in conjunction with one of our BLE chips. Some commercial proximity devices might work with the app, but if the manufacturer of the device want to make sure that you can only use the manufacturer's own app they are free to do so.

    The same goes for the nRFToolbox app. It will probably work with some heart rate monitors, proximity devices, etc., but not all. The app is intended to be used for development with our chips and our SDKs.
