PIN-Based Bluetooth Connection without Default Popup about amazon-freertos-ble-ios-sdk HOT 4 CLOSED

I think the only way to avoid having the user enter a PIN is to use Just Works pairing by configuring the FreeRTOS device to have no human input/output capabilities. This should only show a user confirmation prompt on iOS to complete the pairing before bonding.

However, this process is susceptible to MITM during the pairing process, by-design.

I would suggest revisiting the requirement, as your research has indicated that device pairing is transparent to iOS Apps using BLE.

Can the user pair their device for the first time only? After successfully pairing with short-term keys, bonding can be performed in order to store long-term keys. Bonding allows the device to be paired again without any user input.

Yes, very first time whenever the user tries to pair with the device. User has to enter the PIN and we want to handle that PIN programmatically instead of reveling that to user and taking input from user.

Once bonding is there then next time that bonding will allow user to perform pairing without any user input until the user unpairs that device

Closing as there hasn't been action on this issue for several months. This also will not be added as a feature as this library is deprecated. For a more recommended set of solutions, please see the repository top-level README.
