I have implemented CallKit and a CallDirectoryExtension in my app. Is there a way to ask the user in-app to enable this setting? Similar to how permissions for Contacts, Microphone, Camera are requested?

If not, what's the best way to navigate the user to this settings screen?

Settings -> Phone -> Call Blocking and Identification

I have the same problem.Here I use a CallKit Api to check the Call Blocking and Identification status and then show a alertview .But my app got rejected by apple.

you can use CXCallDirectoryManager.sharedInstance.openSettings() from the app which will redirect the user to the iOS Settings app and Call Blocking & Identification settings.
