get a notification from notificationCenter after returning from a phone call

Question

I want to do an action after the user tapped on the call button and made a call then returned to the app.

This is my function for making a phone call :

let phoneURL = URL(string: String(format: "tel://%@", phoneNumber.englishNumbers))
UIApplication.shared.open(phoneURL!)

and I have set an observer on CallView in viewDidLoad() like this:

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector (showFeedBack), name: UIApplication.didEnterBackgroundNotification, object: nil)

After I made the call and pressed on the End button (the red button which ends the call). the CallView would appear but the notification won't get called.

Am I using the right notification? or is this the correct approach for detecting when a user made a phone call through your app and came back?

P.S. I have used willResignActiveNotification notification. but it send the notification before even making the call (when the alert is appeared and the user has not select anything yet)

You can use CXCallObserver to listen the call events as below,

import CallKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, CXCallObserverDelegate {

    let co = CXCallObserver()

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        co.setDelegate(self, queue: DispatchQueue.main)
    }

    func callObserver(_ callObserver: CXCallObserver, callChanged call: CXCall) {
        if call.hasEnded {
            print("Call is ended")
        }
        if call.hasEnded == false && call.hasConnected {
            print("Call is connected")
        }
        if call.isOutgoing {
            print("This is an outgoing call")
        } else if call.hasEnded == false && call.hasConnected == false {
            print("This is an incoming call")
        }
    }
}
