Is there a possibility to select "OK"/"another option" answer in iOS system popups when an external entry device is connected using by this device?
I'm using Bluetooth device (iRig BluetTurn/iRig BlueBoard). This is a device connecting via Bluetooth (one as a keyboard, another with different protocol). They have 2 or 4 buttons. I am using it as next/previous buttons to navigate the app, because the user cannot use his hands. It's working perfectly, but if iOS shows a popup (eg. that there's new software update) the user is blocked, because he can't dismiss it (can't touch screen).
I strongly doubt it, but does anyone have an idea that it would be possible to answer these iOS system popup questions via external bluetooth device? I want to point I'm not a manufacturer of this device, I can't change how the buttons respond.

I have one UITextView in my iOS project, when user taps in the text view, if using soft keyboard, the notification keyboardWillShow will be called. My question is if user uses an external hardware keyboard such as bluetooth keyboard, is there any way to know when it is active?
Few Functionalities like
Camera
Push Notifications
bluetooth Keyboard
For these, you need to use Real device instead of simulator. I haven't tested bluetooth keyboard functionality in realtime. but i'm pretending it was one of the feature that to be tested on real device.Please Make me correct if i was thinking wrong.
I have verified that if I use simulator the sofewareWillShow will not trigger, but if I use iPad device and connect to bluetooth keyboard it will be called. The iOS version is 12
I want to my computer to be perceived by the iphone as an external keyboard. For example, I connect an iphone to a computer via a lightning cable and run the Pages on the Iphone and my computer starts sending text via the lightning cable and this text is displayed in the pages. The question. What can I read about it?
Already answered here.
What you are looking for is to use your Mac/PC keyboard for inputing text in your iOS devices, which is pretty reasonable since iPhone’s relative small screen doesn’t make for a great keyboard.
This can be done and there are quite a few apps to achieve what you want. You download the app in your PC/MAC and they all work by presenting the hardware keyboard as Bluetooth keyboards, then the iOS device seamlessly connects to it. For example http://www.acrosscenter.com/ or https://www.houdah.com/type2Phone/.
I want to launch my app on the device (if App available) using the USB\Wifi\Bluetooth connection from my mac app.
How can I achieve this functionality
That is NOT possible. You can't do it using any public API. Though i am not aware of any private API that facilitate this types of functionality.
This is iPad control Mac's touch bar demo:
TouchBarDemoApp Allows you to use your macOS Touch Bar from an iPad (through USB connection) or on-screen by pressing the Fn-key.
Mac control iPhone:
iTunes Mac app can get the iPhone's screenshot and edit iPhone's apps.
Xcode can launch iPhone's apps when you debug ShareExtension.
So I think there are some methods to achieve your function. But I don't how to achieve. Maybe its private.
As already posted, you cannot directly launch an app.
But you can make your App show up on the lock screen as well as the task switcher so it can be opened with one click. This feature is called Handoff.
Here is the usage description for the end user and this is the programming guide on how to implement it.
How to show iPhone app icon on lock screen same as camera on bottom left.
Is there any framework required to implement or just go to settings page in iPhone.
How to do it exactly please described step wise.
Thanks in Advance
You might have seen in certain circumstances some app icons are showing up in the bottom left corner of lock screen. That is an iOS 9 feature. that may be because of following reason.
You're near a business or iBeacon that is broadcasting its location and you have a corresponding app installed, such as being near a Starbucks store; drag the icon to the top of the screen to launch that app.
You're able to use Handoff to take over from an app on another device. For example, if you're composing an email message on your iPhone and switch to your iPad, drag the Mail icon that appears on the iPad up to load the message you were working on in the Mail app.
When you insert a headphone jack into the device's headphone port, or connect to a Bluetooth stereo, iOS 9 guesses you want to listen to something and displays the icon of the last audio app you used when connecting headphones or pairing to that particular speaker. Drag the icon up to open that app.

Apart from these, there can be more reasons, like if you are using an application at a particular location/time for few times/days, then iOS will suggest the app once you reach that location or at particular time of every day.
you can't do this kind of stuff from code or from your application. It is apple's restriction. and you can't change it or replace with another app. it is by default camera app.
I need to connect the bluetooth handset programmatically in one of my iOS projects. I do not want to go through iPhone settings to connect the bluetooth handset.
