1. 5 UNIQUE FEATURES OF
IBEACON APP
DEVELOPMENT
Workarounds for
approximation &
tracing
Two-way communication between
an app and a beacon is not possible
with beacons since they are one-
way radios: they are unaware about
the customer devices receiving their
broadcasts. And there are two
workarounds for this.
Authorisation to
activate Bluetooth &
location services
For beacon apps to perform, not only
the device has to support beacons but
also the user has to enable Bluetooth
and location services. It has found that
it’s best to wait until the last conceivable
minute to ask for these permissions.
Balancing UX and
security in the feature
set
When building a beacon app, beacon
developer needs to precise measure
which elements will enhance the user’s
experience without defeating them as
well as factoring in user privacy.
The business rationale
imperative
The beacon app has to collect data such
as the beacon UUID, location and minor
and major numbers. When an application
connects a beacon, a business logic
script then delivers a list of all the users
nearby.
Variable signs
Beacon app has to best figure out the beacon’s distance that is
challenging as radio waves bounce around a physical location and are
affected by the presence of users.
