I am developing one application that has many controls to format the text.
The controls are like colors,Font Style,Border,Giving Background to Text,and even animations.
My Question is can I send this formatted text through SMS and MMS to my friends?is apple support this?
please give me any link or any reference where i can study this and implement it in my project.
thanx in Advance….
As far as I know its not possible, I have seen SO many of these apps on the store that basically just save as a picture and send as a picture.
As of now… in the SDK
MFMessageComposeViewControllerdoesn’t support MMS.Although you can render an image and send it.
HOW DO THEY DO IT????
They might send a request back to their server which sends an mms from there?
Here are some options:
This is not possible with the current MessageUI API: the MSMessageComposeViewController doesn’t accept attachments like the MFMailComposeViewController does.
The only way to do this currently is to use an external service that allows you to send mms via a REST call for example.
GSMA defines a REST specification for exactly this purpose: http://www.gsmworld.com/oneapi/reference_documentation-version_1.html (multiple pdf’s on this page)
Try to find a local service provider that implements this specification and you’re good to go.
Just to add the direct wiki link to the OneAPI MMS spec: http://gsma.securespsite.com/access/Access%20API%20Wiki/MMS%20RESTful%20API.aspx and a link to the PHP/Java sandbox https://github.com/OneAPI/GSMA-OneAPI where MMS can be tested locally . Cheers.
