Setting iOS to Airplane Mode (via NFC)

A client asked us to develop an app that can toggle iOS to Airplane or Do Not Disturb mode from scanning an NFC chip.


Both the Airplane and Do Not Disturb mode appear to be non-public functionality, or even impossible from within an app without some special privileges.


We are wondering if there is any way to get these privileges via a program.

We've already looked into the MFI program, but we cannot get any further without having to pay the coface fee, while we are unsure if this is the way to go.

Not that I’m aware of.
