I noticed that iOS Google Maps app and Skype app both play out sound from my car's speaker via bluetooth.
My car's manufacturer only allows my phone to use the car speaker for phone calls (unless you pay more money for "enhanced bluetooth"), so both apps play the trick of "faked" phone calls, i.e. I saw from my car's dashboard that I'm calling myself, when Google Maps provides voice turn-to-turn navigation.
Haven't done iOS programming much, I'm wondering if there is any code example to achieve this purpose. Any pointers would be appreciated.

I want to develop a native iOS app using WebRTC that have almost similar functionality to skype. I have few queries :
Q 1) I know we can implement Audio and Video call using WebRTC but is
it possible to implement Text Chat and Screen Sharing in iOS app
using native WebRTC ?
Q 2) I need to provide time estimation of **Audio Call,Video Call,
Group Audio call, Group Video call, single user text(share media as well) chatting, multi user text (share media as well) chatting and
Screen Sharing.
Please let me know approx. development time of individual functionality if single developer works on it, who have good hands in iOS development.
Thank you....:)
What is the difference between placing a phone call in a car equipped with hands free calling over bluetooth compared to connecting a phone via bluetooth to the same system, but streaming music or maps directions that the stream can't be heard unless the radio system is switched to bluetooth / aux?
I'm curious why a phone call can be handed off while say, listening to fm or xm, but instructions from Google Maps can't be heard unless the radio is switched to bluetooth / aux.
Can this be programmed via iOS or is this a flaw on the side of the car's software?
My car radio doesn't support A2DP.
Then I realized that Google Maps plays the navigation sounds over the "phone call protocol". It's like Google Maps is calling me. :D
Is there a app or something like that to do that with the Music Apps of iOS (e.g. Spotify)?
Thank you for answers!
I'm new to voice and audio over a network.
I've been searching on google for samples and solutions to implement a p2p voice connection (the idea was an audio conference).
I found google talk xmpp framework that can access informations like users and text chatting.
Does anyone have any idea for this framework if is used to implement a voice chat or some things like conferencing?
You can try hoiio (it works for whole country)
The other options were tropo, pilvo and twilio (it doesn't work for some country).
Hey I have a video app which uses AVPlayer, I received an email from a user saying he couldn't use his car's bluetooth anymore since I updated the app some time ago.
Now, I didn't tried to support bluetooth back then, but apparently this functionality came along with MPMoviePlayerController which I used before.
Is there a way to check if there's a bluetooth device connected and to send audio to it?
I've seen this question, but it didn't help, the volume control shows but no button letting me chose the output.
Do I have to do something else in order to use bluetooth as output?
I've only tested with my car's bluetooth, which works with phone calls and also other apps like Viber.
