The same exact code should work, but for iOS 10 you need to do some additional work by adding "prefs" to the URL Types:
After selecting your target:
It should be similar to this:
Now, your code should works fine.
UPDATE:
If it -somehow- did not work as expected, you might want to follow this workaround.
Hope that helped.
In iOS 10, a new url is required. Try using this code which tests both urls :
NSArray* urlStrings = @[@"prefs:root=WIFI", @"App-Prefs:root=WIFI"];
for(NSString* urlString in urlStrings){
NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString];
if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:url]){
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
break;
}
}
This works fine on iOS 10,
Go to Targets --> (Application) --> Info --> URL Types --> +
In the URL Schemes
write
prefs
See the image,
Then add the following code,
-(void)openWifiSettings{
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=WIFI"]]) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=WIFI"]];
} else {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"App-Prefs:root=WIFI"]];
}
}
Try this one :
if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString]]) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString]options:[NSDictionary dictionary] completionHandler:^(BOOL success) {
}];
}
Thanks :)
For Swift:
let url = URL(string: "App-Prefs:root=WIFI")
if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url!){
UIApplication.shared.openURL(url!)
}
Swift 4.2, iOS 12
It's not longer possible to do that kind of deeplinking with the newer version of iOS. My app was recently rejected for using: "non-public URL scheme", such as: prefs:root=
. So I'd say to not waste your time with something that we can't currently do, and simply open the settings.
This is the function that I'm currently using in my app for it:
extension UIApplication {
...
@discardableResult
static func openAppSetting() -> Bool {
guard
let settingsURL = URL(string: UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString),
UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(settingsURL)
else {
return false
}
UIApplication.shared.open(settingsURL)
return true
}
}
Usage: UIApplication.openAppSetting()
let url=URL(string: "App-Prefs:root=WIFI")
// you can change root as your requirements
if UIApplication.shared.canOpenURL(url!)
{
UIApplication.shared.open(url!, options: [:], completionHandler: {success in
})
}
else{
UIApplication.shared.open(url!, options: [:], completionHandler: {success in
})
}
