How to convert "Country code" to "Mobile Country Code" programmatically in iOS?

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15502413

Question

I am able to grab the country code (ISO 3166 'two letter code') from NSLocale or from GeoPlugin.

But my requirement is to get the MCC (mobile country code). I need to call one REST API with this current mcc of a device to determine if the user is home or abroad.

I thought about something like keeping a local DB with MCC and CC as key value pair. But this wont be up to date if I pack the DB with the bundle.

I googled a lot before asking this question in SO. Is there anyway to convert an CC to MCC with any iOS API or any third party website?

Thanks in advance.

Was it helpful?

Solution

For Manually you can use this

NSDictionary *dictDialingCodes = [[NSDictionary alloc]initWithObjectsAndKeys:
                    @"972", @"IL",
                    @"93", @"AF",
                    @"355", @"AL",
                    @"213", @"DZ",
                    @"1", @"AS",

OTHER TIPS

If I understand your question correctly you'd like to achieve this:

CTTelephonyNetworkInfo *info = [CTTelephonyNetworkInfo new];
CTCarrier *carrier = info.subscriberCellularProvider;

NSLog(@"MCC >> %@", carrier.mobileCountryCode);

Maybe this code is usable to tweak it so you can input dynamic country codes instead of the subscriberCellularProvider.
