ios background mode #39

Closed sce9sc closed 8 years ago

sce9sc commented 10 years ago

I've used this plugin with great success. I recently bought a lightblue bean (Arduino with ble) and worked great with this plugin. The only problem that I am facing is that there is no background service and thus when the app goes in the background it does not wake up when there is a change in a characteristic . I would be nice is someone could implement background mode in ios (and android) for bluetooth.

We too are trying to talk to a BLE device in the background and are having a hard time getting it working!

Interested in the same feature. Any near term plan to add it?
