Core Bluetooth is a framework for communicating with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices on Apple platforms such as iOS and macOS. An app can act as a central device (Central) that scans for and connects to nearby devices and reads and writes their services and characteristics (Characteristic), or conversely act as a peripheral device (Peripheral) that advertises data. It operates on the basis of the GATT profile and is used to develop apps for BLE accessories such as sensors and wearables. It plays a role corresponding to Android's Bluetooth API.
