HiBeacons is a fully functional demo app for the new iBeacons API in iOS 7. The app can be used to demonstrate both beacon advertising and ranging, by toggling on/off two switches. You can easily see any beacons in the vicinity, with all their info, under the 'Detected Beacons' section.
- The app can only monitor a single beacon region, but can easily be extended for multiple.
- You can find and set the UUID and identifier for the beacon (and the region) at the top of NTViewController.m.
- Major and minor integers are generated randomly every time a new advertising session starts.
- The app will not list itself as a beacon, even if you toggle advertising on. (It's how the API works.) You need to run another instance of the app for that.
- The UI doesn't show any alerts; check the console for more details.
