Having some problems with the ArdunioBlue IOS app because I cannot find any method / sketch to send data from the Arduino BLE module to IOS. However, sending data to the Arduino BLE module from IOS works fine. Unless I am missing something huge, the ArduinoBlue IOS app is "one way communications" only, as far as the user is concerned. I sent an email to the developer, but it bounced as "undeliverable". I would prefer to have BLE comms bidirectional, obviously.
Edit(Update): I found more docs on ArdunioBlue and then found a method (which I have tested and it works) to send messages from the Arduino back to IOS:
But after many tries, I cannot get the Blynk IOS app to connect to the Arduino BLE module, even thought it works fine with other IOS BLE apps, so I posted a question on this in the Blynk Community:
I am working on a semi-auto detection idea for Arduino for the Scope project.
It does require a little user intervention but minimal.
It works by just responding to two on screen prompts to unplug and plug Arduino
into a USB port.
There are two versions and both work perfectly well and give... (3 Replies)
A very simple Arduino board test... LOL
Here is some very easy code to test a cheap Arduino board I just got from China via Aliexpress. I am still waiting on a about 30 more orders from Aliexpress for more Arduino stuff. This was the first order which made it here.

In my further exploration of Arduino, today I decided to install the arduino-cli on my mac today.

I followed the instructions for macOS but when I got to this part:

HI all...
(Apologies for any typos.)
To add to Neo's Arduino subject matter I have decided to upload this in ".zip" format.
Ignore "*.info" files these are AMIGA icons only and also the "HAM" drawer as these are photos in ancient AMIGA HAM modes.
I have noticed that there are current... (6 Replies)
Waiting for more fun Ardunio parts from AliExpress, I decided to test two cheap Chinese Arduino UNO clones.
The Arduino UNO R3 (CH340G) MEGA328P
The Wavgat UNO R3 (CH340G) MEGA328P
Both of these Chinese Ardunio clones sell for about $3 USD, delivered to your door.
The bottom line is... (0 Replies)
Just finished a quick Python script to send the current unix time over to the Arduino from macOS, so in the absence of GPS or some other way to get the unix timestamp (epoch time) to the Arduino, I can get my macOS and Arduino UNO synced to within a second.
Normally, when the Arduino starts... (9 Replies)
This post describes a "work in progress" project I started today. Here is the High Level Overview:
Currently, this project sits on my desk as an Arduino UNO (on the bottom), an NB-IoT Shield (sandwiched in the middle), a Sensor Shield (on top) with a HM-10 BLE Module (in the little... (13 Replies)
