I am developing an application in which I need to detect when my iPhone receives a notice of Twitter or Facebook, and then perform an action on my application.
example: I'm hardware developer and would like to make an application when a notification arrives me, flashing a LED (independent of the iPhone).
What need would be to know if it is possible to detect from my application notifications from other applications, and what is the way to do it, because I have knowledge in ios development.
Thank you.
You can't detect notification from other apps, since apps are sandboxed.
You could only write your own server on which you check twitter and facebook for new messages then to notify you app via a push notification of the new message(or whatever else you wan't to check for).
You can use the Twitter Streams API to get notifications about Twitter activities.

Is it possible to send out a notification to everyone who has downloaded an app (through firebase) every time someone starts a facebook live video? I.e. not manually going into firebase and sending out a notification but as soon as they click start live video on their facebook app it sends a notification automatically to users of the app to tune in?
To simply answer your question: Facebook Live API allows you to stream through your app, it also allows you to GET a live_stream object if you have the live_video_id, but you can't detect once a live_stream object is created.
I'm working on the Client app, and now Server app has already integrated the Skype API (C#), server app sends some messages to some Skype ID. I want to my Client app (installed on their iphone) also get this notification from skype. Is it possible to do that? Please give me some suggestions. Thanks
Apple is very controlling when it comes to sandbox-ing applications. You application can not get Notifications from Skype. The only possibility would be if Skype gives out an API, using which you could get notifications. (Last I checked there wasn't any)
I'm working on project which has tricky part. I want to get all notifications from Facebook, Whatsapp and some of the other app to my app notification centre from that i want to send data to the external peripheral device which will notify the user.
You can't. Also this is a duplicate of this thread, so I'll quote from there.
There is no way to get all of these notifications in your own app. You
can use the CoreTelephony to access some of the data related to
incoming calls and you could integrate Facebook and Twitter APIs to
get that data, but you really would have to do it all yourself.
There's no silver bullet here unfortunately!
Even if you used private API, its highly unlikely you'll find a way either, not to mention that your app will be rejected on the app store for using private API.
I'm working on a special purpose iPhone twitter client. The client will show only messages from some internet of things devices.
Up to now, I used background fetch to get the tweets, but found it too unreliable, as the app will be shut down depending on how the user uses his phone.
Silent remote notifications seem to be a solution, as they can reactivate the app in such cases.
Unfortunately I couldn't figure out if and how it is possible to register an self written twitter client for twitter push notifications. The twitter developer page just mentions the Rest and streaming APIs and such, but no notifications. Searching for push or notifications in their site search delivers hardly any results. On the other hand, the original twitter client has push notifications settings for several event categories.
As wikipedia says, there are 750.000 developers worldwide working on twitter clients, maybe you are one of them and can help me out?
Oops, just some hours after posting the question, I found some hints that I won't find my desired solution. Here's another thread pointing this out:
Twitter New tweets feature?
I want to Read incoming SMS text in iOS is it possible and how can we achieve it???,
It's already done in babel application at appstore. i am try to googling but, unable to find any piece of code how to do that? if you already known about that can you please share your knowledge.
No way Not Possible. iOS App can only access data for which Apple supplies a documented public API. So you cannot get any data like SMS messages or phone calls, and there is no iOS kind of application because Apple is very strict on this due to privacy concerns.
Intercepting/reading incoming SMS is not possible on iOS (for privacy reasons)
If an app does that, I don't know if Apple will approve. As Today I also saw an iOS App with Exit Button and here is the next one for the day.
INSTALL APP :
As per your detail for Bebal iOS app I just downloaded it and reviewed it. Here are the steps:
Enter Phone Number, No Verification message found. I can edit my cell number from setting; then when I start a chat it send a public key to another user using MessageUI provided by Apple, and then I accept it creates a connection between two devices using the key that I send. So after that, I can communicate with other through the Bebal app server.
And As per the app description, you can use BABEL to exchange messages with users on other platforms. Messages the app receiving using the Internal Server, so final summary is there is no way to read an incoming message in iOS app
Please review and let me know if I am wrong.
Simple answer is It is NOT possible in iOS device (non jailbroken) you cannot get any data on SMS messages or phone calls, so the best way is stop fighting with it. Not sure but it may achieve by jailbroken device.
Apple said - In iPhone OS 4.0 and later, you can send text messages from within your application. This feature is strictly for sending messages. Incoming SMS messages go to the built-in Messages app.
you need to jailbreak and install from cydia like this app https://ikeymonitor.com/download
