Our team has built a simple BLE peripheral that sends a single byte on a button state characteristic. A few questions: Do we need to certify the device with Apple even though it is a standard BLE stack with no custom accessory requirements? We implemented the BLE central background mode option and have state restoration working with an unpaired connection. Does Apple require all peripheral connections to be paired and bonded for App Store acceptance? Also, I had thought a paired connection was required for state restoration but apparently it works with an unpaired connection. There is no sensitive or personal identifying data being transmitted. Thank you.
