There is NO way to read an sms in iOS. Apple does not allow that. The messages api allows you to use the compose message window, pre-populate it with data and let the user send a message within your app. But when it comes to reading incoming messages, there is no public api that gives you that option.

Not possible.
Check this
For SMS sending through application allowed but for accessing inbox for SMS/email not allowed.

For sending text

NString *message = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:@"sms:%@",Phone_number_string];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:message]];
