How to check if iPhone is in Airplane Mode with Swift

Question

I\'d like to check whether flight mode is activated. If so, I need to show a warning message.

How can I check whether flight (airplane) mode is active using Swift?

Answer 1

You cant check the airplane mode is active or not , while you can check the cellular signal strength,

func getSignalStrength() -> Int {

let application = UIApplication.shared
let statusBarView = application.value(forKey: "statusBar") as! UIView
let foregroundView = statusBarView.value(forKey: "foregroundView") as! UIView
let foregroundViewSubviews = foregroundView.subviews

var dataNetworkItemView:UIView? = nil

for subview in foregroundViewSubviews {

    if subview.isKind(of: NSClassFromString("UIStatusBarSignalStrengthItemView")!) {
        dataNetworkItemView = subview
        break
    }
}

 if dataNetworkItemView == nil
 {
    return 0
 }
return dataNetworkItemView?.value(forKey: "signalStrengthBars") as! Int

} 

Using this method you can get the signal strength and determine the device is in airplane mode or not . In airplane mode it will return 0 while in network it will return strength.

Hope this will help you
