About nRF Beacons

It allows you to register actions that will be triggered when a specified event occurs and it also allows you to modify the content of a beacon including the beacon’s UUID, Major, Minor and calibrated RSSI.
Currently the app supports the following actions:
•Show an object (Mona Lisa painting)
•Open a web browser
•Play an alarm
The app supports the following four events:
•User enters the Beacon’s range.
•User exits the Beacon’s range.
•User is near to the Beacon.
•User is at the Beacon.
Note:
•Supported on IOS 7.0 or later and iPhone 4S or later.

Oct 4, 2014
In IOS 8, Apple has changed its policy regarding the Beacons. It now supports only Beacons having manufacturing id set to Apple ID (0x004C) in advertising packet. Nordic nRF Beacon having manufacturing ID set to Nordic Semiconductor ID (0x0059) will not be recognised by the CoreLocation API in IOS 8. Therefore, IOS app nRF Beacons will not work with nRF Beacon device if its manufacturing id is not set to Apple ID in advertising packet.
