Get list of all wifi available in ios - ios

I have check all possible solutions to get list of all available Wifi's but nothing works for me.
I even try NEHotspotConfigurationManager API but it connect to wifi with predefined SSID. In my case I need to get the list only.
Do we need entitlement document for NEHotspotNetwork?

This is not still possible in iOS. It doesn't look like there's a way to retrieve a list of currently available SSIDs, without using private APIs which would result in rejection from App Store submission of your app.

How can I get identification string look like IMEI in IOS

My project have a case: one account user can only log on to one device ( if user log on to app in device A, user can't log on to app in device B). My Idea is: when user login, I'll get the imei Iphone (like android) and send it with request login to server. But I can't get imei. I try with UUID, but UUID will change when re install app. Keychain does not solve the problem. Please help me.
You have to use Keychain to store Unique Id , this will not change even if user delete app
You can use any wrapper Source code to do this
here is an example
https://github.com/Joe0708/KeychainUUID
At the beginning I'd like to mention that I do not know any method that directly answers your question, especially that Apple does not allow you to read IMEI and other similar stuff due to privacy concerns. This has been answered here.
The workaround might be as follows
Take a look at the UIDevice class, especially at the identifierForVendorProperty which provides you (according to documentation ) with a device specific value.
The value of this property is the same for apps that come from the same vendor running on the same device. A different value is returned for apps on the same device that come from different vendors, and for apps on different devices regardless of vendor.
As far as i know some financial apps are secured this way to permit only one device to access the account. This however requires registering a device each time application is reinstalled.
Alternatively you can use UUID you generate within your app (first run) and then you assign it for the user online. It might take the form similar to two step verification process. Be aware however that with such restrictions user will have to be online all the time to use your app.

How to fetch the list of near by wifi networks and able to connect to them from our App in ios (Using private API for enterprise App)?

I want to fetch the list of near by wifi networks and able to connect to them from our App in ios, and my Application is Enterprise App so even private api's is also fine. Stuck this issue since 2 weeks, please provide me some references..
What you require will only work on JailBroken devices, the blog(blog.guvenergokce.com/iphone-wireless-scanner-ios5/170) which #Ckouta referred also has one comment from the Blog Admin,
I’m assuming that your device is already jailbroken (otherwise not possible)
You shall create release build of sample app and upload release build in to /Applications folder.
(you can use open ssh for that )
Public API allows you to have only information about the current wifi used by your device using CNCopyCurrentNetworkInfo
In order to fetch all the wifi available in your area, take a look at: Stumbler which is using MobileApple80211. I think, it handles what you are looking for. Moreover, you can also use it to connect your device to a specific wifi. You can find a good example of what you need here (answer #9)
Just keep in mind, if you are using private API, your app will be rejected by Apple.
Although it's late but have a look at this link. You can do what you want with the use of MobileWifi.framework and thanks to Cykey there are some reversed headers to use. I have done what you want myself using the link above:)

iOS Conversion / installation Tracking

Objective: i want to fetch my custom parameter(referrer) from iTunes link upon installation of my application in device.
iTunes links look somethings like this:
https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/complete-gym-guide-lite/id550449574?mt=8
If i append my parameter say(&referrer=xyz)at the end and i open this url in ios safari browser then it will prompt to download the application.
Confusion: will app store send my parameter(referrer) to my application on launch so that i can fetch it in my application and use it.
In case of Android play store link look like this: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=&referrer=guid%3D%guid%
As you can see referrer parameter at the end of url. Once app is installed in device then play store will send this parameter to app using INSTALL_REFERRER broadcast receiver. We can use this parameter.
What i tried OR Other people doing for conversion tracking: Other people are simply sending static data to their server at the first time opening of app and maintain a flag in NSDefault to make sure that app does not send same data again. I can also do the same as well as alternate ways suggested in below links but i want to do something with custom parameter.
I have already seen below links:
iOS - track which ad campaigns my installs are coming from
Tracking iOS installs from multiple marketing sources
Please help me out.
As #Aditya said, for now, Apple is not sending any referrer (or params) from iTunes to installation.
The only way you have it's to use a third party sdk to get your installations.
I have been working on a own sdk to get this but the way to get any info it's really hard and not really confident to use it. So endly we used some third party which are using many techniques to getting this (as fingerprint data, App2App methods, etc...)
I have tested appsflyer sdk and facebook sdk, they work as expected, use this or any else you prefer.
Hope this helps

Get IMEI and serial number from SIM on iOS programatically

I need to get the IMEI number and serial number of the SIM card in iOS, i have done this in android using the telephonymanager, but how can i achieve this on iOS?
I need this value because I save it in a data base using a web service, each time a client attemp to log in, so it doesnt matter if the client changes celphone or not, the account will be the same because the SIM card will be the same one.
I have been searching on the web, and found a way with this:
NetworkController.m
But it seems like this class has been removed from the web. Another possible way to achieve my goal is to use:
UIDevice-IOKitExtensions.m
But no documentation is given. Any ideas?
Does apple accepts an app using private framework?
Apple does not allow the use of private framework / api. Also, getting the users IMEI number will cause Apple to reject the app.

Can I do an app like Find my iphone in iOS?

I want to create an app which has the following features.
Track friends / family members location
Locate/track the stolen device location
Lock the device, delete the device datas by using desktop or by SMS.
Most of the above features are provided by Apple's "Find my iPhone" app. But I just want to know whether is it possible to create such an app.
From my understanding, Apple wont let the developers to use private API's and they wont allow to erase datas (like Messages, Calls details) remotely.
Please suggest me some ideas.
If you create any app which directly competes with any of the apples build app will be rejected by appstore.. But most of the above things you can do with private api's and with the help of a web service..
It wasn't possible prior to iOS7. App was not able to respond to any remote calls. There is a new API which "can" be used to solve similar things: http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/iphone/ios-7-sdk-mutlitasking-enhancements/ or http://www.objc.io/issue-5/multitasking.html (Remote notifications). You may be able to track your friends or stolen device, but not to lock or erase it.
There is a way to remotely erase the iPhone without Apple's Find My iPhone - via Exchange account. There are some open source implementations of MS Exchange, so there may be a chance to make a service which would be able to wipe the device. But even when you make that service, there will be a need to add the "exchange account" into the iDevice. I am not aware of any function which can do so programmatically.
Anyway - You can do an app which is similar to Apple's apps, but it must be somehow different. It must provide some special content or functionality, otherwise it will be rejected.
