Answer 1

for (NSString *number in arrayName) {
number = [number stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"+91"
withString:#""] mutableCopy];
number = [number stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"-"
withString:#""] mutableCopy];
[arrayNameNew addObject:number];
}
Try like this :)
Happy Coding.

}

NSArray *phoneNoList = [[NSArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"9429564999",#"9428889239",#"7878817072",#"[phone]",#"9909951666",#"9879824567", #"[phone]",#"94-28-037780",#"[phone]",#"55246",#"8866-030880",#"95-37-223347",#"[phone]", #"[phone]", nil];
NSMutableArray *noArr = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
for (NSString *no in phoneNoList) {
NSString *temp1 = [[no componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet:[[NSCharacterSet decimalDigitCharacterSet] invertedSet]]
componentsJoinedByString:#""];
if (temp1.length > 10) {
NSString *temp=[temp1 substringFromIndex:2];
[noArr addObject:temp];
}
else
[noArr addObject:temp1];
}
NSLog(#"Arr Data : %#",noArr);
Try this, definitely helps to you.

Try this
for (NSString *str in arrayNumbers) {
NSString *stringWithoutNineOne = [str stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"+91" withString:#""];
NSString *stringWithoutSpace = [stringWithoutNineOne stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#" " withString:#""];
NSString *stringWithoutdash = [stringWithoutSpace stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"-" withString:#""];
[refinedArr addObject:stringWithoutdash];
}

Answer 5

Remove special characters from array.
for (NSString *strPhoneNo in arrayPhoneNo) {
[self removeSpecialCharacter:strPhoneNo];
}
and
-(NSString*)removeSpecialCharacter:(NSString*)mobileNumber
{
mobileNumber = [mobileNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"+91" withString:#""];
mobileNumber = [mobileNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"-" withString:#""];
// remove extra special charecter if needed.
//mobileNumber = [mobileNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#"(" withString:#""];
//mobileNumber = [mobileNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#")" withString:#""];
//mobileNumber = [mobileNumber stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:#" " withString:#""];
return mobileNumber;
}
if NSArray not update then use NSMutableArray insted of NSArray.

You can also try this....
Getting the last 10 digits of your given phone numbers.....if your requirement is fixed then try this single line code
for (NSString *string in arrayNumbers) {
NSString *trimmedString=[string substringFromIndex:MAX((int)[string length]-10, 0)];
[newArray addobject:trimmedString]
}
