Run iPhone as an iBeacon in the background

Question

Is it possible to run an iOS 7 device as a Bluetooth LE peripheral (iBeacon) and have it advertise in the background? I have been able to get it to advertise in the foregro

Answer 1

The Can you smell the iBeacon? article discusses both the use of Estimotes and advertising from Macs and iOS devices. You need to check the capability “Acts as Bluetooth LE accessory” in the project target.
