Open Wifi Settings by “prefs:root=WIFI” failed in iOS 10

Question

I was using prefs:root=WIFI url scheme in my app with prefs entered in info.plist to open directly the iOS settings application in Wi-Fi settings and it was working great on

Answer 1

Just so it's explicit: Apple does not allow this. It's possible your app will make it through anyway, but this is the same as using any other undocumented API.

Here is the full list of supported Apple URL schemes.

Here's a thread where Apple confirms that "any Apple URL schemes that are not officially documented should be considered private API."

Answer 2

try this for objective c in iOS 10

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=WIFI"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:url]) {
   [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];
} else {
   [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"App-Prefs:root=WIFI"]];
}

Answer 3

This works fine on iOS 10,

Go to Targets --> (Application) --> Info --> URL Types --> +

In the URL Schemes write

prefs

Then Call,

- (void)openWifiSettings
{
    if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=WIFI"]]) {
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=WIFI"]];
    } else {
        [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"App-Prefs:root=WIFI"]];
    }
}

Answer 4

iOS 10, to open your apps settings:

if let settingsURL = URL(string: UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString) {  
                UIApplication.shared.openURL(settingsURL)
          }

Answer 5

Using "App-Prefs:root" instead of "prefs:root"

Answer 6

SWIFT 3.0:- working in iOS 10

@IBAction func openWifiSetting(_ sender: AnyObject) {
    let url = URL(string: "App-Prefs:root=WIFI") //for WIFI setting app
    UIApplication.shared.openURL(url!)
}
