React Native Bluetooth - control app with bluetooth

I am working on an app in react native, and I have to connect it with a device through bluetooth. From the device I can control my application, has anyone worked with something similar?
There is very little information on the internet about it.
Check out React Native BLE Manager. This library is designed for Bluetooth-low-energy devices' integration with React Native.

How to select bluetooth protocol a react native library?

I have a bluetooth le server running on an embedded linux system listening on RFCOMM port and I can connect to it using apps from playstore that emulate serial terminal. I want to write an app in react native that can connect to it.
I have found these two following libraries react native ble manager, react native ble plx, but can not find any reference to RFCOMM. Searching through the repos I can't find any reference to any protocol to be honest, whether that is RFCOMM L2CAP or OBEX.
Examples only show how write/read happens, but as opposed to other lower level libraries such as bluez there is no mention of protocol used. Are those libraries restricted to only one way of communicating and as such it is redundant to state what underlying protocol is being utilised?

Do Android and iOS have the ability to power an external device such as a flashlight without an app?

I'm thinking about developing a flashlight that plugs into the charging port and/or the headphones port of an Android and/or iOS device. Will I need to create an app to switch it on and off or more preferably can I have it turn on automatically when plugged in?

Communication between cordova app and native app?

I am building a cordova app which will communicate with a device using BLE in background using https://github.com/don/cordova-plugin-ble-central
Here are the challenges I am facing :
I want this app to be kind of a service to be used by another native app i.e communication between cordova and native app. I assume both apps need to be opened in background or one of them in foreground for this to work. Is it possible? How?
This cordova app will be a separate apk. But is it possible that it can be a part of native app so that user only have to install the native app without installing the cordova app separately?
Such app which continuously scans for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) peripherals is eventually be cleared by mobile OS to conserve battery. Is there any way to have it opened in background all the time. I know in android you can disable battery optimizations for a particular app. But what about IOS?
Is it maintainable across different platforms(both IOS and android)? Or native implementation will be a better choice?
