List for iOS URLS SCHEMES

WARNING DEPRECATION

From iOS 11 the schemes url's stoped working correctly. Be aware that from iOS 11 to now iOS 14 this won't work.

Past times are always better

The gist I started on 2015 has now 201 stars (02/25/2017) and a lot of comments. But since gist does not provides a notification feature when someone comments and I can't answer right away, I hope with the issue area in github we can share more doubts and improvements. Thank You all!

Note

Apple will reject apps that are using private url schemes (Ugh, Apple....) if they are pretty much obvius. Some apps are rejected and others are not, so, be aware of this issue before implementing any of those URL's in your app as a feature.

Updates

[UPDATE 5] Apparently we're having problems with iOS 11 and schemes. it seems Apple changed one more time how we reach url schemes...some of them aren't working in mobile phones (but were working in simulator till' Xcode 9 GM)
~~[UPDATE 4] iOS 10 update: apparently settings now can be reached using App-Pref instead of prefs~~
~~[UPDATE 3: For now you just can use url schemes to open your apps's settings with Swift 3.0 (Xcode 8). I'll keep you informed when OS preferences can be reached]~~
~~[UPDATE 2:The openURL() method of UIApplication is now deprecated. You should use application(_:open:options:) instead]~~
~~[UPDATE : Not yet tested in iOS 10. It will fail because of policies changes in URL scheme handling.]~~

Testing

Other Apps' Settings

Sometimes we need to open Setting's Preferences not of our app, but of the iPhone itself. What should we do to acomplish this?

You must configure the URL Schemes in your project. You will find it in Target, Info, URL Scheme. Once there, just type prefs

2.- Later, just write the code with the URL path of the preference needed. In my case was the keyboard path.

Swift 1.2

   UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string:"prefs:root=General&path=Keyboard")!)

Swift 3.0

This is a work around to open your app's preferences, but it will crash if you don't have any.

Open apps's preferences:

Note: you don't need to add prefs text inside URL Types

    if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
        UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString)!)
    }

Open OS preferences:

   UIApplication.shared.open(URL(string:"App-prefs:root=General&path=Keyboard")!)

Swift 4.0

Open apps's preferences:

Note: you don't need to add prefs text inside URL Types

   if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
     let settingsUrl = NSURL(string:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString)! as URL
     UIApplication.shared.open(settingsUrl, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)
   }

Open OS preferences:

    if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
        let url = NSURL(string:"App-prefs:root=General&path=Keyboard")! as URL
        UIApplication.shared.open(url)
    }

Objective-c

  [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=General&path=Keyboard"]];

Open App's settings extension

extension UIApplication {
   
    func openAppSettings() {
        if let url = URL(string:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString) {
            openExpectedURL(url)
        }
    }
    
    fileprivate func openExpectedURL(_ url: URL) {
        if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url) {
            if #available(iOS 10.0, *) {
                UIApplication.shared.open(url, options: [:], completionHandler: nil)
            }else{
                UIApplication.shared.openURL(url)
            }
        }
    }
    
}

Open other App's Notification settings

You can open any app notification's settings, only if that app HAS notifications enabled. For that you need the bundleID added in path:

   UIApplication.shared.openURL(NSURL(string:"App-prefs:root=NOTIFICATIONS_ID&path=com.microsoft.Office.Word")! as URL)

Finding an app's bundle identifier of any app:

Find the app you are looking for on the Apple AppStore. For this example, we’ll use Yelp: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/yelp/id284910350?mt=8

Copy the app ID number. It’s just the numbers after the text “id” and before the “?”. So in this case, it is: 284910350.

Paste that ID number into this URL: https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?id=284910350

This will download a file 1.txt

Search the output you get back for “bundleId”. The app’s bundle ID will be listed there: com.yelp.yelpiphone
