Right, but you can register your own url schemes which will launch your app and let it handle the data. I've assumed that the SMS displaying framework will parse out such URLs, realize they are registered and put the correct hotlink into the message to launch your app.

The sms: URL on the iPhone only supports phone number, unless if
you're willing to go deep into the private API, but you couldn't
distribute your app into the App Store.

My advice is, better to install some kind of sms application or
gateway on your server, so your iPhone app could send the text into
the server, and the server will forward the message through sms.

Nop you didn\'t miss understood the question, I will have a look at the
docs, because the idea is that once Im in my app, put the first credentials,
then the server will send me an authorizaiton code, and the idea is to don't
leave my app to get the data from the sms, but the app fetch the data of the
incoming sms, but if you tell me that you think its not possible to get
more automated than clicking the ">" arrow in the Iphone sms app to launch
mine with the data in the url then Im kinda stuck... I will take a look at
the docs and see what I find out.


I will let you know if something as you have been thinking about doing the
same, if find a workaround.

If you're trying to use data which has been sms'ed to your user, which is
something I've thought about doing before, the only way which I thought it
could be done is to register your own url for the application and then have
the sms you send include the data in a URL format, eg if your app registered
URL is foobar you might have foobar://yourdatahere in the SMS. I believe
that you'll then have the opportunity in the SMS screen to click the ">"
arrow at the side of the screen and your app will launch with that URL as
data and you can process it.


I don't think you can get any more automated than that. It also relies on
you sending the data in a compatible format.


Not totally sure this is related to the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities
though, go hunt around the docs for url or 'phone:' and 'text:', I think
those are a couple of the URLs that apple registers for stuff and the
documentation is around there.


If I have misunderstood what you're asking .. sorry

Aha ok.. thanks.
I need to develop an iPhone app that fetches sms data form the sender,
the data are access keys, so I was wondering if tis possible to do such an
application.
I was reading the iPhone App programing Guide, and there is something
interesting, I can register my app with some particular keys, in my case,
"sms" into the UIRequiredDeviceCapabilities, so I can comunicate with teh
iPhone app that handles the sms, and fetch the data... am I correct?
Thx

if your questions are Cocoa, Core Foundation etc related and about released software (ie not iPhone OS 3.1), ask away.

you can try the apple iphone dev forums too if you like (but I dont
find them anywhere as nearly useful as this list)
