Pass NSDictionary or a String from one App to another App iPhone

Question

I have to send data which is present in an dictionary from one application to another application, which has to used over there.

Please help.

Answer 1

I am not exactly sure about how to do it but I think you might need to use the Custom URL Schemes for that. Here is a link that can help you register your URL Scheme and then using it.

Answer 2

At least you can pass it as a string parameter of custom url (like thesecondapp://data_string_goes_here) and then parse it from within the app you pass it to

See how to encode NSData to NSString here.

EDIT: You should also take a look at application:openURL:sourceApplication:annotation: method implementation examples. It could be a bit more sophisticated but it seems to be more 'native' than just passing a raw string. Here is the info how to call the 'counterpart' of this method from another app.
