Thanks for the prompt reply @eskimo! I could understand that there is no way to control Airplane Mode or DND programmatically for now. But I wish to have such feature which will help in many situations, for example, I can prompt user to Turn on DND or Airplane mode when they start recording something, so that their audio/video session will not be interrupted by phone calls or other audio/video services. Also if the privacy is main concern, iOS can confirm with user whenever we request to turn ON/OFF Airplane Mode or DND as like iOS prompting and confirming with users when requesting to delete PHAsset. I hope we will have public API to control Airplane Mode or DND with users permissions as like other privacy permissions(photos, location, etc) does. Thank you! Natarajan S

Hi, I'm also looking for the public API to check status and control the DND or Airplane mode with user's permission. So Is there any latest update on this question? Thanks! Natarajan S
