Hello,

I have managed to pair my puck with my laptop and various android devices, however I cannot pair it with my iPhone 6. I turn on the bluetooth in iPhone settings and it never discovers the puck.

and it never will ....

Use a iPhone app like nrf Connect and you will discover them all 😁

@MaBecker Curious to know what the reason is the iPhone doesn't see them in the Settings?
Is it because it's a device that the iphone doesn't support?

Yes - the iPhone doesn't know what to do with the Puck out of the box, so ignores it.

However if you uploaded code that turned the Puck into something iPhone did support, like a keyboard then it would most likely appear and be connectable.
