iBeacon: can broadcaster iOS device get notified if client receives a beacon or enters its region?

I have two iOS devices; one is sending beacons using peripheralManager, beaconPeripheralData, etc. The second, a receiver device, is currently scanning for regions and beacons of the same UUID using didEnterRegion, didRangeBeacons, etc.

Is there any method or callback for the -broadcaster- side to know if the scanning side has entered its region or received its beacon? Something similar to "didEnterRegion", but for the broadcaster.

Thanks.

Solution

  • Simple answer - no. Not so simple answer - clients don't connect to the "broadcaster", they just listen for advertisements, so there is no way for "broadcasters" to identify who has "heard" them.
