iPhone support.

Just a note for those looking for a simple iPhone to Wifly link app solution. I have made an iPhone transmit app that sends simple ASCII string commands to a Wifly radio, for robotics remote control applications. It’s Star Wars themed (since it’s for controlling an R2-D2 robot!), but since you can customize the button labels and command strings, you could use it for other applications or for quick testing. This is send only. It’s on the app store, called “R2 Touch”. Link below: https://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=631960765&mt=8#

On my web site (www.curiousmarc.com) there is also an example configuration of the Wifly for creating an ad-hoc network for the iPhone to connect to, which was actually the difficult thing to figure out.

There is also another more generic iPhone test Wifly app that lets you send data from a console-style interface. This one sends and receives, and also discovers nearby Wiflys from their UDP broadcast. It’s called WiFlyClient, made by the Wifly manufacturer Roving Networks.
