Hi,

I am trying to connect multiple iPhones using bluetooth. I was thinking of having a server/client system. I just want to know upto how many devices can be connected using bluetooth? I am not able to find a reliable answer online.

Also If you know of any good tutorials regarding this it would great if you could point me to it.

Thanks AC

A: 

A single Bluetooth device can connect with upto 7 devices in a piconet. If a device can do scatternet it can be connected to even more devices..

Application level connection can happen only if both devices supports the required profiles and corresponding role. If you are trying to stream music , the profile to be used is A2DP , one device will need to be the A2DP source and other A2DP sink, In case of Iphone it supports only A2DP source. So 2 iPhone will not connect with each other.
