Unable to Discover/Connect to iOS Devices

• bleak version: 0.4.0
• Python version: 3.7.3
• Operating System: Windows 10 version 1809

Description

I tried running the discover.py example, and my iOS 12.1.4 iPhone SE was not recognized. I had the Bluetooth menu open on the device so it would be discoverable.

I tried getting the device’s services by using the get_services.py example with the iOS device’s Bluetooth address filled into the script. The iOS device was opened to the Bluetooth menu. The device was not found. Traceback for get_services.py:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    loop.run_until_complete(print_services(mac_addr, loop))

Ok, apparently I was premature in closing this. I did not understand what you actually wanted to do.

I can detect multiple iOS devices using the discover method, but strangely enough not my own. I was also capable of connecting to an iOS device and request some data, but not from all characteristics, so I think there needs to be some modifications in the code to allow for handling access.

I will try to find out why all devices does not show up.
