I’m down to just testing some remaining things with the library sync feature and then the beta version is ready for me to submit to Apple. I hope I can get the WiFi permission I need from Apple by tomorrow, but I’ll just submit it without that capability if I have to.
I wanted to also mention to all the testers that iOS only has Bluetooth LE, and doesn’t support Bluetooth RFCOMM which is what the Android and Windows versions of MobileSheets currently use. This means it will not be possible to connect iPads to Android or Windows devices over Bluetooth at first. WiFi will work fine though. Once I have time, I am going to look into adding Bluetooth LE support in the Android and Windows versions so they can all communicate. So far the Bluetooth LE works wonderfully on my iPads and is far easier to use than the Bluetooth option on Android and Windows. You don’t have to pair devices or mess with the device settings at all. My hope is that it will work just as well on Android and Windows, as it would then be the recommended Bluetooth connection type for all platforms.
