I have a bluetooth scanner connected to iPad.
ios doesn't support bluetooth spp mode, so I have to set scanner into HID.
However, after that, the virtual keyboard disappear.
I tried [ios keyboard] plugin.1 No luck.
I assume this may be a common case if your app work with bluetooth device(keyboard).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Is there any way anyone knows of to force the onscreen software keyboard in iOS when a Bluetooth HID device (like a barcode scanner) is active?
There are a few ancient questions on SO, but most work by manually adjusting the frame of the keyboard view, and that method no longer appears to work as of iOS 8.
Strangely there doesn't seem to be any information on how to do this post iOS 8. Is it just impossible?
See:

Can we used our iPhone as a HID client in iOS by using Bluetooth? We want to make HID communication with a Bluetooth Dongle. Our iPhone will send keys to dongle like a Keyboard, mouse , joystick etc.
The same we can done between a keyboard and a Dongle. But How it will possible when we are using ios device and dongle?
Please help to clarify my doubts If I am wrong anywhere.
Thanks in advance!!
iOS only provides HID Host, but not HID Peripheral. You may be able to capture the keypresses in an iOS application, and send the equivalent data (ASCII or HID frames) via Bluetooth Low Energy. A custom application on the dongle/device will be required to receive the data and convert/execute to HID if desired.
I need to connect the bluetooth handset programmatically in one of my iOS projects. I do not want to go through iPhone settings to connect the bluetooth handset.

SO please give me any idea about HOW to Connected iPhone Bluetooth pairing with other Phones Bluetooth Programmatically.
First tell me it's possible in simulator or not?
Is it possible to programatically pair an iOS device with a Bluetooth device?
I would have the device's MAC address and also the Bluetooth Pin.
I know it's possible to do on an Android device without any pairing screen/dialogue appears, but can it be done in iOS?
Thanks for any pointers.
Is there anyway to detect if a HID blue tooth device is connected to the device using Delphi XE5, for an iOS application.
Ideally, I would like to show an indicator light if a scanner is connected or not.
Yes, the scanner is iOS supported and does connect and work as keyboard.
