Prompt the user to configure a pin for their phone

🎤 General Discussion iOS

Hello,

When we detect that our user has not configured a pin or biometric security on their phone, we’d like to prompt them to configure a pin code from our iOS app. Reading through the security doc, I didn’t see an API to do so. What we’d like to do is open the system view that lets a user add a pin. Is there a way to do such?

Thanks

Hi @doomer, there is no direct API in iOS to programmatically open the system settings for configuring a PIN or biometric security. Apple intentionally restricts this kind of access for security reasons.

Best,
