iOS bluetooth low energy not detecting peripherals - ios

Question

My app won't detect peripherals. Im using light blue to simulate a bluetooth low energy peripheral and my app just won't sense it. I even installed light blue on two devices to make sure it was generating a peripheral signal properly and it is. Any suggestions? My labels are updating and the NSLog is showing that the scanning is starting.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like you aren't declaring that you implement the CBCentralManagerDelegate protocol. Change your BlueToothViewController interface to add the CBCentralManagerDelegate.
#interface BlueToothViewController () <CBCentralManagerDelegate>
