How can i bring up the iPhone call screen

Question

I allow my user to select phone numbers in my application. How can I then bring up the iPhone call screen and then if possible, initiate the phone call?

Answer 1

You can do this:

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"tel:12125551212"]];

which will create a UIAlertView prompting the user to call the number or cancel.
