Apple Shuts Down Flipper Zero’s Ability to Shut Down iPhones::IOS 17.2 cut off Flipper Zero users running the Xtreme third-party firmware from mass-spamming popups at iPhones.
I don’t know the ins and outs. But I have a flipper and an android. It looks like the issue is on the UI more than overwhelming the hardware like a DDOS. My android gets a bunch of bogus connect attempts for random Bluetooth headphones that don’t exisit, but there’s enough time in between each to go in and turn off Bluetooth if you wanted. The iPhone made it so you just always had one, so you couldn’t do anything else with the phone.
