HI πΒ I want to create MY OWN APP that will be able to communicate with my customized UWB devices ( UWB CHIP MOUNT ON ARDUINO / RASPERRY PI board or maybe can communicate with airtag / samsung tags /other third parties uwb tags ,too , but however my main purpose is , create my app that will be able to communicate with my customized UWB tag / devices ,
So I found out that the NEARBY INTERACTION framework that utilizing the UWB U1 CHIP of iphone 11/12 ,* does not provide the API CODE for this π₯
later on , Apple allows the app developer to only create their own UWB DEVICES / TAGs that will be able to communicate / utilize with iphone11/12 BUT ALL OF THE UWB CUSTOMIZED DEVICES / tags FROM THE DEVELOPERS ,-- MUST BE USED WITH ONLY THROUGH " * Find My ( APP ) *** " FROM APPLE
under the app developer of Apple program , called * MFi * - MADE FOR IPHONE = https://mfi.apple.com/ -- under this program , * the developers can not create their own uwb app to utilize their own uwb devices/ tags as like me *π₯
now there are some of third parties devices such as -Ebikes VanMoof S3 ,X3 model or Chipolo ONE Spot uwb tags or Belkin earbuds that joint MFI APPLE program , however all of them must be used with Find my app ( Apple ), ** they can not create their own app to utilize their own uwb devices
So I do not know when will apple provide its uwb API for developers to create their own app to communicate with their own uwb tags / devices I want to create my own app that will be able to get the distance / direction from my uwb devices or maybe third parties devices too* but right now can not because of what I explained above ,in this Apple forum question
so if Apple open the UWB API for the app developers access / develop their own ( using - UWB ) apps ,Apple will have more creative UWB apps from creative ideas of app developers
So I am asking Apple ,-When will Apple provide the uwb API for the app developers to do such a things as my case ?
PLEASE π₯Ί

Hi π the first thing of the first post that I just watched the video of the WWDC 2021 on 8 june 2021 --> about nearby interaction framework and read its update , regarding to its update ,the app developers will be able to develop their UWB own app with UWB customized devices or third party devices ,however, in order to be sure for developing our own UWB app to interact with their our ,own customized UWB devices or third party devices , we need to try it with ios 15+ (beta) for this moment, am i right ?
*let see how it is , first of all , we need to try testing it ,and bring the creative idea to create the creative app however
Thanks π to nearby interaction framework engineer team , Apple and WWDC 2021 to update the nearby interaction framework ππ€
Since 8 JUNE 2021 , i was happy when apple provide/update the nearby interaction API that would help many developers to use this api in order to create their own UWB and own UWB devices ,APPLE announce to certified UWB manufactures that sell the UWB chip / arduino to developers . (QORVO and NXP )
I bought the DWM 3000 EVB from QORVO , then i got them on 18 June , i was ready to develop and test to get distance , as the wwdc 2021 video from apple ,
** So i need to write the code on the hardware, i meant on the DWM 3000 EVB , that i bought them too , i have to write the code nearby interaction on iphone11 side , and write the code on DWm 3000 EVB as wwdc 2021 video
** however how to write the code on DWM 3000 EVB ?? , i found the very sad !! π₯ news and big problem , how can i write the code on DWM 3000 EVB , because i could not find the available / published code of DWM 3000 EVB on internet , either QORVO website ,
very sad more and more π₯ , then i decided to send the email to QORVO technical support , yes i got the answer , they said api code might be published on 2 JULY and then QORVO guy asked me many questions in email , about my company ,location or other stuff , why/ for what ? then i already answer them too , **ie --> one of my answer is , i am only normal software hardware maker as geek or normal person, not rich , not company, just only (individual ) , then i wait until 2 JULY , finally i decided make calling to them with phone number that one of QORVO technician send me , in the calling , they , QORVO explained , YES , ** THE CODE FOR DWM 3000 EVB HAS BEEN AVAILABLE BUT NOT FOR INDIVIDUAL AS LIKE ME AND NOT PUBLISHED ON THE INTERNET , THE CODE ONLY SEND TO CUSTOMER , THEY MENTIONED , **THE CODE ONLY SEND TO THE LARGEST CUSTOMER OR THE CUSTOMER THAT HAVE LONG TIME WORKING WITH QORVO AND LONG TIME HAVING GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH QORVO ** and i keep asking them when will the code be published to individual or very small , no -name developer as like me , they said no , you have to wait without exact date!!! sorry they could not tell any information than this , then i answered them , ok not fair ! ! but ok , i understood all well , i am small guy , individual , my DWM 3000 EVB that i bought them , will be as sad memory on the top of my bed , because i could not do anything to them as my intention
*** I UNDERSTOOD THEIR ANSWER WELL **π₯π₯ , and i am very sad and disappoint with this , i do not have so much money , but i have my idea and my intention to do what i thought , but when i found out the problem as i wrote above , SAD AND SAD π₯π₯π₯π₯
only some customers , i mentioned above , QORVO will send the code to them , but some as like me ( individual , no name ) won't have right to receive the code before special customers as i mentioned above , why ??? , i bought DWM 3000 EVB too , ok not too many pieces but i bought them too , why i can not have same right to get the code ?
i honestly am really disappoint/ sad with this sad newsπ₯π₯π₯π₯π₯ , I INTEND TO WRITE THE CODE TO DWM 3000 EVB
PLEASE ANYONE AND FRAMEWORK ENGINEER HELP ME π
