Hi Drossi,

The feature to set the advertising device name is described here.

You can find it in the ble_dfu_buttonless_on_ctrl_pt_write() function in ble_dfu_unbonded.c

I'm not sure it's implemented in the iOS DFU library, but you can do this in your app. Simply send a write command to the DFU ctrl point characteristic with DFU_OP_SET_ADV_NAME + device name. And then after that start DFU as normal.

You can verify this by checking if the bootloader advertising after you trigger DFU with the name you set.
