Hello, sorry for this late reply but i am having trouble using an xbee module with the application shield. Do you mean there is no way to make this work? Did you find a way?

Yes you can use the XBee with the Application Shield. Make sure it is plugged in with the right pins, where the top left of the shield is pin 20, and the XBee is facing left. Then you can send using Serial xbee(D1, D0); xbee1.printf("Hello world");

There are lots of examples online. Such as: https://github.com/ibm-watson-iot/iot-starter-for-ios
