Question

I'm trying to get the real country code E164 (for example: US = 1 Or Israel = 972) in obj-c?

for Example, The user entering his phone number: 0523333333 and if the User is from Israel i need it bring back: 97252333333 to send an SMS with nexmo.com

For now i can get the MCC (mobile country code) but its different from the real country code (Israel MCC is 425 and the real code is 972)

Was it helpful?

Solution

I think this is what you want, get the calling code from the user's country, not from the iPhone settings. (WITHOUT having a header file)

You'll need CoreLocation.framework to run.

CLLocationManager *locationManager = [[CLLocationManager alloc] init];
locationManager.distanceFilter = kCLDistanceFilterNone;
locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters;
[locationManager startUpdatingLocation];
[locationManager stopUpdatingLocation];

CLGeocoder *reverseGeocoder = [[CLGeocoder alloc] init];
[reverseGeocoder reverseGeocodeLocation:locationManager.location completionHandler:^(NSArray *placemarks, NSError *error)
{
    if(error){
        return;
    }

    CLPlacemark *pm = [placemarks objectAtIndex:0];
    NSString *countryCode = pm.ISOcountryCode;

    NSDictionary *dictCodes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:@"972", @"IL",
                                            @"93", @"AF", @"355", @"AL", @"213", @"DZ", @"1", @"AS",
