Is it possible to read/access SMS through an iOS application (> ios7)

Question

In a non jail broken iphone is it possible to access/read sms from an iphone application.

I have read that in case of an Android phone this thing is possible, as i need to develop an ios app which can automatically read an OTP sent through an sms to a user.

Since iOS application is sandboxed, i just want to confirm the possibility to do it legally.

What's an OTP? Why is it being sent by SMS? – Tommy Feb 13 '15 at 04:50 — Tommy, Feb 13 '15 at 04:50

No.... it's not possible in iOS because it's privacy issue.
