{% hint style="info" %}
On iOS, Apple assigns a virtual MAC address to Bluetooth Low Energy devices, so you cannot use the real MAC Address. First you need to use Bluetooth LE Start Scanning to list bluetooth low energy devices, and retrieve the assigned MAC address for the device you want. Then you can use that MAC address to connect to the device.
