Hi everyone,

I’m trying to have the following setup in place:

An Arduino board with Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04 and an iOS app that displays in real time the distance measured by sensor.

In the existing [BLE tutorial](https://www.raywenderlich.com/2295-arduino-tutorial-integrating-bluetooth-le-and-ios) on the site, I found a reference to the BLE-Shield v2.0.0 based on Bluegiga’s BLE112 Module but it looks like it’s not in stock anymore.

Do you know an alternative shield that might help to get the task done ?

Thank you.

ESP8266 WiFi Shield might serve your purpose . . . ?
