how can i make bluetooth connection in ios app

Hello.


I found that the jabra ios app can find their own bluetooth headset and can make bluetooth connection (hfp and a2dp) with the headset.

Usually it is not possible in ios app that using open api.

Could you please let me know how it possible? If there is a particular vendor API that enables Bluetooth connectivity, what should I do to get it?


Thank you.

In short; Bluetooth headset vendors may apply to Apple MFi program. And if so they put an Apple chip in the headset for authentication allowing apps to communicate with the headset using the External Accessory Framework.


Some headset also uses BLE, which then doesn't require MFi chip/program.
