Thanks
You can do one thing. You can make web service in .net or in php. Or there are third party api for sending sms to other users like way2sms.com. these are just for .net and in php.
with jailbroken phones this is feasible.. I don't know the detail though..
anyway, with stock iphone it isnt possible

It's not possible using the official SDK.
For reasons of security and privacy, I think it is not possible to read SMS from iPhone with a third party application. However if you want to save your SMS, it seems that a solution exists with this tutorial
Apple restricts this behavior because of privacy politics. All messages are stored in /private/var/mobile/Library/SMS/sms.db file and you can't get access to it without jailbreak.
Is there any VOIP app for iPhone/iPad that can accept call request from another custom iPhone application?
I have a custom iPhone application written with C# and MonoTouch. I need to make VOIP calls (and conference call with multiple phones) from my iphone application. But developing a VOIP app from ground up is not worth the time (and I dont know Obective-C either). So I was looking for an SDK or App that can accept call request from other apps. For example my app could construct and call a URL like (app-protocol:call?18002221111&18003331112&18001322244)... an installed VOIP in iPhone will listen to the protocol and place conference call to all three numbers. (Something like this is possible with skype but skype does not support conferencing in IOS... although works fine in Mac or Windows).
Thanks
Thanks for your answer Paul. Do you know if gvconnect url scheme will support bulk call (multiple numbers at the same time? For single number I can have skype installed (Free), I tested the skype: url scheme and that works fine. The problem is it does not work with semicolon delimited phone numbers in iOS ... which works fine in skype for Windows Desktop version.
I think GV Connect - Google Voice Connect can do this for you. It supports gvconnect:// url handler scheme. You can find a list of apps which use custom URL handlers here http://handleopenurl.com
I haven't tested this one but it could be also helpful:
Siphon, an open source iPhone app.
I wish to implement sending pre-defined sms templates to missed call numbers automatically on iPhone. How can I do this?
There is no support for this in the official SDK.
Any apps that do this will not be accepted into the App Store.
Your only option would be to jailbreak the phone and do it there.
In my application i want to send a attachments, Test through MMS. How can we do it using iPhone SDK. Please help me out.
Thank you
Unfortunately you can't, at least not in a supported way that you would get away with on the App Store.
I am new to iPhone world.
I have developed an application, which I would like to send to all the iphones come under the vicinity of a particular wi-fi access point. (It is meant for a shopping mall)
With my limited knowledge in this, I understand, I cannot distribute the application through my webserver. I even cant use the 'Ad hoc mode' suggested by Apple, as registering of all the mobile phones is impractical.
I would like to know whether the only solution is 'distribution through appstore'? Or any other solution available?
Expecting your help.
Thanks.
If you mean that the application would automatically be loaded onto phones when they move into a certain shopping mall, then yes, I can see that you are new to iPhone development! :)
For security reasons, the user has to specifically choose to download the app.
If the app is not iPhone-specific but simply a web page made up to look like an app, then you could use SMS to send a URL to the phone. But that would require you to know the phone number, which is also not made available through any kind of local wireless communication, again for obvious security reasons.
The simplest approach would be to put a poster up in the mall, telling iPhone users that they can find the mall's app on the iTunes App Store.
Another possible solution is to make a web app instead of a native app.
