Strange you would mention iOS. It's been over a decade since we evaluated using iPhone or Android for an app to configure our product which is a niche to say the least. Before Android phones we use Palm Pilots and the serial communication over Bluetooth which made the future possible for other devices because we used a Bluetooth standard.

So with Palm Pilots on the way out we took time to look at the Apple phone and Android.

To our surprise Apple changed their serial comm support over Bluetooth and was non-standard. We were never going to change close to a million controllers to include Apple's Bluetooth chip. We went with Android and never looked back.

To this day it has remained a mystery why Apple did that.

Sadly, I don't have any knowledge of how to program or code which is the reason why I can't develop any app whether it's for iPhone or Android products. I'm sure there are videos of how to do it on YouTube if you are interested and finding out.

One thing to keep in mind when planning an iOS app is the hardware and software constraints specific to Apple’s ecosystem, like limited background tasking or stricter App Store guidelines. Picking the right programming language, whether it's Swift or Objective-C, really depends on your team's experience and long-term plans. Also, if you're building something that relies on hardware features like Bluetooth, definitely double-check what’s supported, since Apple can be more restrictive compared to other platforms.
