Possible function for an app?

I'm looking to design an app that will run in the background that will monitor another app so it can pull a name from and absolutely no other information.

What it will be monitoring from the other app is a couple of things.

1) It will listen for a sound from the app it is monitoring.
2) Once the user has clicked an "Accept" button, the app will display a name. That name is what I need to be "copied" and pasted in my app for display.

Unfortunately that is as much information as I can divulge without having an NDA signed. I hope it's enough to get and understanding of what I'm trying to do, or at least to know if that part of it is possible.

Please ask any other questions if you may have and I'll do my best to answer it without going into the realm of requiring an NDA.

Thanks ahead of time!


iOS apps cannot snoop on other apps, for privacy reasons. And they cannot run silently in the background except for very specific reasons - VoIP, location recording etc. So what you are asking is impossible.
