On iOS you can use the iOSTransport Pacakge, which creates an item in the routing menu which will bring up the iOS Share Sheet.  This is based on the Objective-C Bridge stuff I added to Einstein.  Experimental at best.

I was able to build the REX recently. I just copied the NewtonDev folder into the Einstein project folder, where the REX’s build scripts expect it to be and ran ‘make’. There is a TSerialChipVoyager implementation in the REX, but I haven’t looked at it carefully. I suspect it might just be an implementation that No-ops the serial port, as when you try to access the serial port in Einstein nothing happens. Might just need some patched functions on the emulator side, I’m not sure.
