Mobile platform support

I am wondering if you plan to add iOS support in the future?
Thanks

Before that, iOS support on the rtmidi plugin has to be added.

I heard that rtmidi supports iOS, so it might not be so hard.

The problem is that I don't have any iOS MIDI interface... Lightning-to-MIDI connector or something like that? Actually, I'm not even sure what I should buy to test the functionality. Do you have any recommendation?

I believe that rtmidi should work with modern iOS releases (not 100% sure though). I cannot offer any recommendation, sorry. I was thinking of the latest iPad pro (usb-c connection) <---> digital piano. Bluetooth would be great, but I guess would require an iOS specific plugin?

I have been using iRig (by IK Multimedia) for connection my iPad to an analogue synth. Works great at least. I guess you can just connect it to a computer midi interface to get it working with you computer as well.

But I guess that's not neccesary to connect it to the computer, couse I guess the use case would be to export a unity build for iOS, and then use a midi controller connected to the iPad to trigger stuff in the Unity application on that device.

Mobile support would be very cool. I think that for iOS devices you can use official Lightning to USB adapter to use MIDI device.

Apple states it here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202034 https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK0W2AM/A/lightning-to-usb-3-camera-adapter

When it comes to Android, I think that any USB adapter / hub should allow for working with MIDI interface.

Very interesting discussion. Is there news about support mobile platform in this days ? Anyone have trying this ?

Currently, how others store app can inplement MIDI with Unity ? How mix native code with Unity code ?
