Which controller has good communication capabilities with Android and iOS?

Question

Arduino

I would like to build a module that will control a pair of light bulbs and a relay based on information from sensors. To access the control of such a module, I want to use a smartphone with Bluetooth (iOS and Android).
Now I use Arduino for this, in general, there are enough opportunities for simple communication. But I want my device to be able to connect to wi-fi in the future, have a web interface or even the ability to update its firmware, work with cameras.
What would you advise to take as a basis for such a system and why?

Answer 1

If without cameras, then esp8266 fits perfectly. You can program from the Arduino IDE and connect via WiFI + uploading firmware over the air.
You can make a combine from Arduino as a brain and esp8266 and nRF8001 connected to it as a means of communication.
If with cameras, then look towards Raspberry PI
