Currently, I am working on one security application. In this application, user can select applications for which he/she want to have additional security.
So, before this selected application start, one 'popup/screen with question' will be displayed. and if user answers it right, popup will be dismissed.
So my question is, is it possible to display our popup/screen before other installed application startup?
And if yes, then how to do it?
I searched on google, but didn't find any useful.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
in iOS, Application run in its own sandbox environment. You cannot control other application's startup and hence this is not feasible using any apple documented APIs.
this is not possible.In iOS, Application run in its own sandbox environment so you cannot get any application information. this is only done in jailbreak programming. In witch you hook app startup method method and show your popup first.

I am new to flutter somehow and I was wondering is there a way to make my application force open itself..like self-launch? I am trying to make an accessibility application to help the disabled but I want my application to force open itself once the user unlocks his phone.
This is not possible in flutter, as this would be a security/usability risk.
If you want to achieve this, you may want to launch the app with 3rd party script software such as Automate for android. However, this would require manual configuration for each device this sould work on, so probably not what you are searching for.
I've seen a similar question from nearly 2 years ago and I'm wondering if anything has changed.
I need to make the installation of a very simple web app more automatic, so that people can just click a link to install it, with maybe a confirmation button to let the iOS security know it's legitimate. The current process of having to add the shortcut to the homescreen, cuts out a large demographic that are used to more user friendly options.
Any help would be appreciated.
I'm afraid the "Add to homescreen" process is a necessary evil here (mainly due to security concerns with how the browser might interact with the springboard otherwise).
If you really don't think your audience can handle this (I'd guess that they can, if they've used a mobile browser at all), you could also add a button or popup that launches a short How-to to walk them through the process.
I am asking this question mainly to know if what I want to do is possible. I don't think there is an app that does it and I've been meaning to learn objective C, but it may not be possible.
I want an app that serves as the ONLY way (at least, the only easy way) to launch another app. So in an ideal world, you have MyApp, which lists app A, B, and C. A B and C are not visible on the normal browser, but can be launched from within my app.
Possible? Not?
Not possible. And its most likely that such a functionality will never make it into the official SDK.
What you're trying to do isn't really possible. It isn't possible (with the official development kit) to create iOS applications that don't appear on the home screen.
It is possible to launch other applications, though -- one common approach is to set them as URL handlers for private URL schemes. This can be used to pass information between applications. (However, trying to use this as access control won't work, because Apple will likely reject an application which can only be opened "correctly" by another app.)
Depends on your definition of App.
You can just have a master app which creates the illusion of being an app launcher by "opening" subroutines. Imagine like the old facebook iphone app for example
NO
Well... This has been done for years on the Cydia store with some custom menus but we wont get into that here...
Using the official SDK I think there are protocols to allow you to open an another application but pressing the home button for example will always go back to the default screen. I think ever if you were able to get it working, there is no chance it would be accepted into the App Store on grounds of it not doing anything the phone already does.
By all means look up jailbreaking and using the custom tool chain but you won't be able to sell this through Apple unfortunatley.
Our customer has a particular request for my project.
how to use short-cut to launch our application?
what I am trying to do is create an standalone application does nothing except to launch my main application to skip some step go to more depth level?
maybe one application is registered with two icons, one is for main process, one is to do short-cut process.
is that possible?
I have searched this site, someone mentioned to create an application to launch another application? is there an example or a piece of code?
Thanks in advanced.
This is probably technically feasible with a custom url schemes, but I doubt that Apple would approve the "shortcut" app for release in the App store.
So I am working on a bundle of applications for my company for the iPad and am trying to figure out if it is possible to install an app but hide the icon. It will not need to be launched from the desktop directly. Instead, I have created a launch desktop that controls login and the launch of the actual apps via custom URL schemes. We decided to do this so we can have many people developing different apps at the time time that quickly and easily connect to a single login and launch desktop. We are trying to make all of the services we offer interconnected.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Or am I going to have to redirect to the login app if the user launches any of the individual apps. That is what we were trying to avoid. It would be incredibly annoying and clunky for the user. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
No is the short answer, you can't install an app and hide the icon.
Even if you could, your architecture sounds pretty clunky. If your services are interconnected, then would it not be better to have everything in the same app? There are plenty of ways to share coding between many developers without everyone having their own, separate app.
Maybe.
There used to be a trick where if you installed so many apps that you filled up every page, any apps installed after that would not have a visible icon (but you could run them via a Spotlight search).
If this behavior still exists, then fill up your iPad's launcher/springboard with apps (download 100's of free games, etc.), then install the apps that you want to be invisible, then delete all the games, and your chosen app might remain with an "invisible" icon.
