Question

I need to implement the following flow in my application:
the user can click on a certain destination and by doing so my iPone app should launch waze which would navigate to that point.

What is the simplest way to do that?

Thanks,Asaf

Answer 1

The only way to communicate with other iOS apps is by launching them using a URL scheme the apps developer configured. you should check and see if waze provides a URL scheme and use it with -openURL: method of UIApplication

here is an example of using the system preferences URL scheme to open the iPhone location settings on iOS 5

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=LOCATION_SERVICES"]];
