- 
    macOS 13, Xcode 14.2, iPad Air 5th Gen (iOS 16.6.1 )
Steps to reproduce
- Run the "Broadcast Sender Example" (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtnetwork-broadcastsender-example.html ) on your development machine and the "Broadcast Receiver Example" (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtnetwork-broadcastreceiver-example.html ) on your iOS device
- Click "Start" on the sender
- Repeat the test above after swapping Sender and Receiver machines
Outcomes
- macOS -> iOS works fine: The broadcast messages are received (expected)
- iOS -> macOS does not work: The broadcast messages are not received (not expected)
Notes
- My iOS Simulator (16.4) can send and receive broadcast messages without problems
- The real iOS device does ask for networking permission when we start broadcasting (see attached screenshot). But the broadcast seems to fail even after allowing it
