How to programmatically send SMS on the iPhone?

 

有没有人知道是否有可能以及如何以编程方式从iPhone发送短信到官方的SDK / Cocoa Touch？

Restrictions

If you could send an SMS within a program on the iPhone, you'll be able to write games that spam people in the background. I'm sure you really want to have spams from your friends, "Try out this new game! It roxxers my boxxers, and yours will be too! roxxersboxxers.com!!!! If you sign up now you'll get 3,200 RB points!!"

Apple has restrictions for automated (or even partially automated) SMS and dialing operations. (Imagine if the game instead dialed 911 at a particular time of day)

Your best bet is to setup an intermediate server on the internet that uses an online SMS sending service, and send the SMSs via that route if you need complete automation. (ie, your program on the iPhone sends a UDP packet to your server, which sends the real SMS)

iOS 4 Update

iOS 4, however, now provides a viewcontroller you can import into your application. You prepopulate the SMS fields, then the user can initiate the SMS send within the controller. Unlike using the "sms:..." url format, this allows your application to stay open, and allows you to populate both the to and the body fields. You can even specify multiple recipients.

This prevents applications from sending automated SMS without the user explicitly aware of it. You still cannot send fully automated SMS from the iPhone itself, it requires some user interaction. But this at least allows you to populate everything, and avoids closing the application.

The MFMessageComposeViewController class is well documented, and tutorials show how easy it is to implement.

iOS 5 Update

iOS 5 includes messaging for iPod touch and iPad devices, so while I've not yet tested this myself, it may be that all iOS devices will be able to send SMS via MFMessageComposeViewController. If this is the case, then Apple is running an SMS server that sends messages on behalf of devices that don't have a cellular modem.

iOS 6 Update

No changes to this class.

iOS 7 Update

You can now check to see if the message medium you are using will accept a subject or attachments, and what kind of attachments it will accept. You can edit the subject and add attachments to the message, where the medium allows it.

iOS 8 Update

No changes to this class.

iOS 9 Update

No changes to this class.

iOS 10 Update

No changes to this class.

iOS 11 Update

No significant changes to this class

Limitations to this class

Keep in mind that this won't work on phones without iOS 4, and it won't work on the iPod touch or the iPad, except, perhaps, under iOS 5. You must either detect the device and iOS limitations prior to using this controller, or risk restricting your app to recently upgraded 3G, 3GS, and 4 iPhones.

However, an intermediate server that sends SMS will allow any and all of these iOS devices to send SMS as long as they have internet access, so it may still be a better solution for many applications. Alternately, use both, and only fall back to an online SMS service when the device doesn't support it.

Here is a tutorial which does exactly what you are looking for: the MFMessageComposeViewController .

Essentially: 

MFMessageComposeViewController *controller = [[[MFMessageComposeViewController alloc] init] autorelease];
if([MFMessageComposeViewController canSendText])
{
    controller.body = @"SMS message here";
    controller.recipients = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"1(234)567-8910", nil];
    controller.messageComposeDelegate = self;
    [self presentModalViewController:controller animated:YES];
}

  • You must add the MessageUI.framework to your Xcode project
  • Include an #import <MessageUI/MessageUI.h> in your header file
  • Add these delegates to your header file MFMessageComposeViewControllerDelegate & UINavigationControllerDelegate
  • In your IBAction method declare instance of MFMessageComposeViewController say messageInstance
  • To check whether your device can send text use [MFMessageComposeViewController canSendText] in an if condition, it'll return Yes/No

  • In the if condition do these:

  • First set body for your messageInstance as: 

    messageInstance.body = @"Hello from Shah";

  • Then decide the recipients for the message as: 

    messageInstance.recipients = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"12345678", @"87654321",         nil];

  • Set a delegate to your messageInstance as: 

    messageInstance.messageComposeDelegate = self;

  • In the last line do this: 

    [self presentModalViewController:messageInstance animated:YES];
