You can't make an iOS device broadcast an Eddystone-URL frame (Apple doesn't allow you to broadcast your own ServiceData type), but you can with Android.

Here's an experimental app that allows you to transmit UID, TLM, and URL frames from a compatible Android device:

If you're targeting Android 5.0 or later and you don't want to mess with all the specs and Bluetooth API, there's the Android BLE beacons library :)
