(14 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I have to do an application that should be launched from the iPhone native applications like calendar, contacts and mail box etc... is it possible to launch 3rd party application from the native app, whether apple allows the developer to do this.
It's possible and quite east in fact. You have to create a custom URL that launch your app.
E.g myApp://?param=value look at this excellent tutorial
Then in the email you click on the URL and your app is launched... This solutino work only in apps that recognize URL

Supporting Open In… menu item in my app for iOS Mail And Safari
I'm working on an application that will download files from the Internet, for further use.
How do I launch my own app when a link is pressed on Safari?
For example, when a .pdf file link is shown in safari the user clicks it and the file is downloaded. After that there is the suggestion to "Open in", followed by a list of possible applications, like iBooks. I want my app to be displayed among these options.
You want to look into associating the PDF file type with your app.
The answers to How do I associate file types with an iPhone application? pretty much covers it.
If you just want to open your app then see Custom URL Scheme.
But associating file type to your iPhone applications is different than custom URL scheme. This thread greatly describe it

How to programmatically send SMS on the iPhone?
i am new to iPhone programming and i was thinking of developing an sms application through which user can send and receive sms inside my application similar to iPhone own message application.i think apple doesn't provide any API regarding accessing sms inbox?? is there any other way around it??
I'm afraid this is not possible through the default iPhone SDK.
You have two possibilities:
Create an application through Open Tool Chain. I'm not very experienced with this kind of developement, but I think it should be possible to access the SMS inbox etc from outside. Drawback: Only jailbroken phones, no App Store...
Create your own service that sends SMS via, for example, a server. You could use Push notifications or something to indicate when new messages has arrived. You should however be aware of, and read up on, Apple's guidelines regarding applications that imitate functionality of built in core applications.
Have a look at the list of new features in iPhone OS 4 ("In-App SMS").
Can't help you regarding the actual API and what its limitations are, though.
