How to programmatically play a default sound tune?

I am working on a conference related application. I want to show a call notification for an incoming call. I tried with AVAudioPlayer and it worked great for custom sounds. My question is, can I get the default ringtone from iPhone (user tone in settings) and play it for my application?

Thanks for your valuable suggestions ...

No, there is no API SDK for receiving ringtones for iPhone.

But you can download them from other links and add to your project

Someone asked a similar question here , but overall this is not possible, at least if you want to distribute your application through the App Store. On a jailbreak phone, you may find this answer helpful.

The recommended way is to use CallKit. Your VoIP application will then receive many things “for free.” When you enter an incoming call using CallKit, iOS automatically plays the correct ringtone.

There are many things that CallKit handles for you. Things like:

  • displaying the correct incoming call screen when the phone is locked
  • what happens if the user is already on another call
  • Do Not Disturb Enabled (either driving or in sleep mode)
  • the phone is disconnected
  • plays the right tune
