Programmatically get own phone number in iOS
(9 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I am currently working on an app that sends SMS. I should be aware what mobile provider's SIM card is inserted in the device, because this determines the SMS's destination phone number. I was about to check the number saved as "own number", which includes the (mobile provider's) area code at a given location, exactly what I need. However, now I see that beginning with iOS 4, there is no possibility to obtain the own number. Can you help me how to get it?

I'm working on an app that has a code authentication, in order to do that I have to know what device has activated the code. Is there a unique ID or something like that, that does not change even if the app gets reinstalled?
You can use the identifierforvendor for this
UIDevice.current.identifierForVendor!.uuidString

Is there a way to get the running apps info or the action of openning the app in IOS? There is a way to do that in android with getRunningTasks, maybe there is a way to do that in ios?
At last in non-jailbroken iOS there is no such possibility. The reason is to protect users privacy - app should not know about other apps that are installed on user device (otherwise it could eg. spot business rivals app).

Is there any example for ios that I can add observer so that I can develop an app that is aware of incoming sms/mms/email event?
There is no public API for that in iOS but there are private API for that. If you use private API then your app will not get approved by Apple.
If you want to use private API then here is one useful solution for that. http://tech.ruimaninfo.com/?p=83
Solution is bit old so you will need to check if it works in current iOS versions. It was working in iOS 6.
