I'm running a BLE HID device on a Sparkfun Artemis Thing Plug board. I can pair with the board and it works as a keyboard. What doesn't work is that, after pairing, I can't connect/disconnect. For example, if I look at my smart watch on my iPhone, the options for it look like follows:
Disconnect option in the iPhone menu
But for my HID device that's all there is:
Lacking the disconnect option in the iPhone menu
As you can see there is no Disconnect option. That's what I want to have for my HID device. I know that in order for the devices to pair only once they actually have to bond (pairing + saving the security information for any future connections). They bond correctly for sure. Resetting the HID BLE device results in iPhone and the device reconnecting. I just can't disconnect from the device with keeping the bonding information. I can only Forget the device.
Is it that the BLE device doesn't advertise properly and iPhone assumes that it's not a device that can be connected and disconnected from?
