Yes I agree with you, moreover for now I am much better as a Java or C developer than as a web developer, so for me the native approach is also simpler. However, yes, I practically never use the emulator even for Android precisely because I have to test Bluetooth, which at least in my experience on Android, is the most difficult part.

I wrote up this series, a few years ago[0]. It was actually #1 on HN for a day, but is probably a bit "dated," now.

I did do an actual video tutorial on it for try!Swift[1].

Really cool tutorial! When/if I start developing for iOS this will be really useful, thanks!
