That is also what I guess the fact should be. According to the following mail list from app, it only successfully implement notification and able to retrieve message by the handle notification returned, not mentioned browsing. http://lists.apple.com/archives/bluetooth-dev/2013/Feb/msg00016.html And according to this document, it requires notification, prohibit message sending but say nothing about browsing. https://developer.apple.com/hardwaredrivers/BluetoothDesignGuidelines.pdf The above is a proof to your (and also my) guess to some extent. But since apple will never disclosure their technical details, neither maintain an clear bug report or something like, only claim that MAP is supported for iphone4 and later. So have to seek help here to see if someone has the same issue I have. BTW, Have you tried message Notification on iphone? I think bluez does not support it yet, doesn't it?
