I am studying about coding and I got a question to control airplane mode in iphone programmatically
For android phone, we can use usb connection and adb to send unix command to control airplane mode.
Is there any possibility to control airplane mode by unix command and lighting cable connection?
I was checking
ios: turn on/off airplane mode from code for iPhone / iPad
How to check Airplane mode in background in iPhone?
but i am not clearly sure if it is possible...
No, you just can't do that.
An app has to adopt to the current network state, not control it.
You would need to access the private API and this would mean, you can't upload the app to the App Store because it is not allowed to use the private API in productive mode.

on iOS devices, is there a way to programmatically disable the browser message "Turn Off Airplane Mode or Use Wi-Fi to Access Data" when my app is intentionnaly on Airplane Mode and works already properly offline?
Many thanks!
Apple's built-in applications show a pop-up message whenever the user doesn't have cellular or wifi connectivity. It looks something like:
"Cellular data is Turned Off
Turn on cellular data or use Wi-Fi to access data
[Settings] [OK]"
Clicking on the Settings button opens the settings panel.
Is this a system pop-up? How can I use it in my own application?
I'm already using UIRequiresPersistentWiFi but it uses a different type of message which appears when airplane mode is on.
Thanks!
You need to enable Application uses Wi-Fi in info.plist. Then this warning is displayed when cellular data is turned off and you're not connected to wi-fi.
Look at the Reachability example in Apple's Sample code. It will give you all the code you need to determine if you're connected or not to the internet.
Is it possible to switch from silent mode to ring mode (and vice versa) on an iPhone
programatically?
Its against the Human Interface Guidelines according to Apple, so it shouldn't be done, and apps may get rejected for doing it.
My application's users don't like interruptions like incoming phone calls. I want to find out if the device is in Airplane mode, warn the user about possible interruptions and recommend invoking Airplane mode.
The reachability examples tell me if the device has a network connection, but it's possible that WiFi is on while the phone is in Airplane mode.
You should just be able to check the kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsIsWWAN flag (have a look at the Reachability.m class and change it to your heart's content).
I want to know if there is a way of changing the internet connection mode from GPRS to WiFi and vice-versa programmatically. I am developing one application and want to give liberty to users which internet connection mode they want to use for my application. Also is there any other connection mode available apart from WiFi and GPRS?
Not with a public API.
There's also Bluetooth connectivity, which is used for GameKit and also automatically used for device-to-device Bonjour.
