[Elecraft] iPad/iPhone control app

[Oliver Dröse]

Thanks for the info, David.

Was not aware that Apple was not supporting BT-SPP (I am using another brand 
smartphone) which has been around since the beginning of BT and is supported 
by virtually every OS and BT stack I know of (well, I didn't know about iOS 
obviously ;-)).

73, Olli

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, and I hope I am, but it is my 
understanding that at this point in time Apple does not support the 
Bluetooth Serial Port Profile (SPP). There are hacks that apparently work, 
but they require a jailbroken device. I'm not very familiar with Android, so 
I'm not sure if SPP is supported there or not.

I agree that Bluetooth SPP would be the way to go. Once it's properly 
supported by iOS. Hopefully at some point it will be.
