Detect incoming phone calls

Question

I need to determine when an incoming phone call arrives. I know that applicationWillTerminate will be called if the user takes the call and applicationWillResignActive when the popup with the confirmation message for the call appears, however:
-applicationWillTerminate is also called when the app exits by user request or battery is about to die
-applicationWillResignActive is also called when a UIViewAlert is shown.

Thanks

Answer 1

In short - no, you can not determine if there's an incoming call or another kind of interruption in your application.

Answer 2

I found this article on handling incoming calls; terminating resuming and persisting state,.

It might help you..

(void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application{ //our app is going to loose focus since thier is an incoming call [self pauseGame]; }

(void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application{ //the user declined the call and is returning to our app [self resumeGame]; }

(void)applicationWillTerminate:(UIApplication*)application{ //the user answered the call (or quit the app) so save the //game as we are shutting down [self saveGameState]; }
