AVAudioRecorder/AVAudioSession with Apple Airpods

Question

I see the question already asked here:

AirPods not working as an input source for Voice Recorder App

I\'ve checked in with this thread but no response.

Answer 1

I think AirPods are MFI (Made For Iphone) accessories which means that bluetooth communication goes thru ExternalAccessory framework https://developer.apple.com/documentation/externalaccessory

Here is apple demo: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/samplecode/EADemo/Introduction/Intro.html

Tip: Protocol name must be put in Info.plist in UISupportedExternalAccessoryProtocols key
