Direct to 'Call Blocking & Identification' on iOS
As far as I know, Apple doesn’t allow apps to directly navigate users to the Call Blocking & Identification settings screen. That’s why many apps just show instructions like: "Go to Settings > Phone > Call Blocking & Identification" to enable the app. Apple only officially provides UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString, which takes users to the app's own settings page. But here’s where I’m confused: some Korean apps like Whowho and Adot Phone seem to be able to direct users to the Call Blocking & Identification screen. Whowho: https://apps.apple.com/kr/app/whowho-spam-block-callerid/id1033450260?l=en-GB Adot Phone: I'm wondering how these apps are doing that. Are they using some kind of private API or workaround? Those app are developed from Internet Serivce Provider Company.
