Hi Everybody,
I’m using the module BC127 in my project to establish the Bluetooth communication with an Application that works in Android/IOS.
My project use the BLE communication to share data with the application and the BT communication to start a Call.
The problem is that in IOS device when I open the bluetooth list I see the same name for BT connection and BLE connection.
Example.
BT connection name is TEST
BLE connection name is TEST-BLE
In IOS when I go to Settings - Bluetooth device - In the list I see two bluetooth networks with the same name ( TEST and TEST instead of TEST and TEST-BLE).
This things doesn’t happen with Andorid, in the bluetooth list I see the two networks with different name
IS there a solution about this problem?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi @mattia.scacco,
I have just tried advertising BT and BLE on my BC127 then using Android phone and Iphone to scan bluetooth device. Result is as below:
a, On Android phone, BT connection and BLE connection have the different names:
BT connection name is BC-01908C.
BLE connection name is BC01908C.
b, On Iphone (latest IOS v14.4), when I go to Settings > Bluetooth device, I see only a BT connection name of BC127 (BC-01908C) in the list.
I tried downloading and installing Melody Smart App (link:
https://source.sierrawireless.com/resources/airprime/application_notes_and_code_samples/melodysmartkit-sample-app-ios/ or on AppStore) to scan BLE devices, BLE connection name of BC127 (BC01908C) displays in the list.
So I think the problem is not from BC127 device, it may be coming from IOS.
Can you check this issue on another IOS devices?
Thanks,

Hi @jerdung,
thank you very much for your reply, I have tried different IOS device and I saw the same problem.
I have written the same question in the IOS developer forum to understand if there is a way to solve this problem.
I keep you updated because I think that this could be a problem for a lot of users.
Thanks
