What exactly I need is that when an incoming call come and my app is in foreground than the call must be automatically received and loudspeaker must be activated.
I have seen many post in SO saying that to intercept the calls is not possible in iOS.
But what if I use any VoIP API and make calls from it to my app[app to app call] ?
can I receive the call automatically in that case or that time also the SDK won't allow me to do so as its the core part of iOS I am too much confused.
This is not possible with UIKit, and furthermore if you did use private Apis your app would not be approved.

Dear Connectycube Team,
I hope this email finds you well.
Our company has integrated Connectycube into our application, which primarily relies on video calling for communication between users and service providers. To ensure a seamless user experience, it's imperative that the video calling system is robust and reliable.
Unfortunately, our development team is facing challenges in making the system highly robust and 100% reliable. The issue lies in the connection dropping when the application is killed or the phone is locked.
issue: We are trying to integrate connecticube onto cordova app. We are using callkit to implement native incoming screen. The issue is that whenever the app is killed or the phone's screen is locked, accepting the call on callkit leads to failure since the accept call function gets called before the connecticube oncall event listener is called.
I would like to request a call with your technical team to discuss this matter and receive any insights or recommendations that could improve the video calling system.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
Kanhu
Once we receive incoming call using callkit and the user accepts the call, we try to send the accept call command to connectycube. But since the oncall event is not fired immediately, we create a callback loop to wait for the oncall event to get fired. This works sometimes but fails most of the time. Is there any other way ro achieve the accept call functionalities using callkit and connectycube on cordova.
I am trying to record incoming and outgoing calls in iPhone... Is it possible to record calls in iOS ?
Please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Yes you can.
With the use of AudioToolbox and libkern/OSAtomic.h
First of all you need to trigger when an incoming call coming.
Fire an event when ever there is Incoming and Outgoing call in iphone?
Recording the call this is what you exactly looking for.
SO post
Note:
Apple allows these hooks only when your application in foreground.
Conditions that allow your app runs in background:
For tasks that require more execution time to implement, you must request specific permissions to run them in the background without their being suspended.
In iOS, only specific app types are allowed to run in the background:
Apps that record audio content while in the background
Apps that keep users informed of their location at all times, such as a navigation app
Apps that support Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
Apps that need to download and process new content regularly
Apps that receive regular updates from external accessories

Record the conversation of phone - ios
There is no public API for recording the calls made (or received) by the built-in Phone app.
You will have to implement your own phone calling mechanism. You'll probably want to use VoIP. (That is what Google Voice uses, for example.) You'll need to run your own server on the Internet, or contract with an existing VoIP service. You'll want to use in-app purchase to let the user buy minutes, because it costs money to run your own server or use a third-party service.
Can we get incoming call information(number) programmatically in iOS7?
I want to create an application so that at the time of any incoming call, my application cuts the call and sends a text message to that number.
Read this may be helpfull, Because in this user blocking calls according to number. where you can check your number How can I use private APIs to block incoming calls in an iOS application?
In this user getting info of incoming calls
There is a hack for this but you can't publish to the AppStore with it.
You can only use this in ad-hoc applications.
This might be obvious but is it possible to have an iPhone app that replaces the default call manager. I would like it to listen register with the low-level services to receive and make calls. I am not sure if apple exposes this libraries to apps. At minimum I would like the app to be able to receive.
No, this is not possible. Apple doesn't allow this. You might be able to accomplish this through a jailbroken device but there would be no documentation to assist you and you would need to discover private APIs.
As noted on this answer
If your application is active when a call event takes place, the
system dispatches the event to your handler immediately. However, call
events can also take place while your application is suspended. While
it is suspended, your application does not receive call events.
How does Truecaller intercept incoming phonecalls on the iphone to display caller ID?
I didn't think this was possible from within the app?
Specifically, if I wanted to build this functionality, what protocols would I go about using?
http://www.truecaller.com/how-it-works
On an iPhone, without jailbreaking it:
- you cannot intercept a call in any way
- you cannot determine the phone number nor the caller ID identifying information regarding the call. Even if you could there
is no way to alter what is displayed on the call screen
- you cannot block the call
- your program can get a notification when a call is being made/terminated etc. But only if your app is executing in the
foreground at the time of the call or if the app is in the
background and has a relevant background mode (even then you can
only know there is a call in some circumstance, depending upon what
you're doing in the background and what state your in etc. Its too complex to describe the exact situation here briefly)
True Caller doesn't do that on iOS as it isn't supported with the native SDK. See their FAQ:
http://www.truecaller.com/support , specifically the "Why don't I receive live caller ID?" Section under "iPhone/Windows Phone". If you must though, try looking into a solution for jailbroken devices.
It's impossible to "intercept" calls. It is possible to handle the "background event call" when a iPhone get's a call. That said, Truecaller doesn't intercept calls. More info can be found on their website.
