Play a music when Calling app is running - iPhone

Question

In my app, user have the option to call to other people in the contact book. Launch the calling app is easy, but what I want to know is whether we can play a short music file when the calling is happening, so user can send their friends a nice music by calling them directly.

If we can play a music in a background, I also want to know if we can know when their friends catch the call instead of just playing the music file randomly in 10-15 seconds

Answer 1

This isn't possible within the current SDK. Two things will prevent it.

1. Once a call is initiated the music playing in the background is stopped by iOS.
2. The voice/audio of a call cannot be altered by an application (to overlay music etc.)
