What is the best sparkfun product to allow control of arduino via bluetooth on iphone.
I have an old bluetooth mate but cannot get iphone to see it.
To interface with iPhone devices you’ll need to use a board that supports BLE…you can either grab a module or replace the regular arduino with an arduino-compatible, BLE-capable one instead:
For a BLE module I’d recommend SparkFun BlueSMiRF v2 - Headers - SparkFun Electronics
For a arduino-compatible BLE board I like this one SparkFun RedBoard Artemis - SparkFun Electronics
thank you for your response.
I have an Redboard artemis , but the arduino IDE gives an error message when I try to upload a sketch.
I have the IDE set to Arduino UNO.
Should the artemis be listed in the IDE options?
Yep - follow the setup guide here to install the Apollo3 board support package and then select “RedBoard Artemis” as the board and give it another try
