How to open Notification Center via URL Scheme from app?

Question

Using the URL Scheme below, I'm able to open the 'Settings' App from the app I'm currently working on.

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString]];

Is it also possible to tweak the URL Scheme so that I can directly open the 'Notification Center' feature inside the 'Settings' App?

Kindly advise. All help appreciated!

You will see the Notification settings for your current app if you use that URL scheme, though. (If you have registered your app for notifications, of course.) — Glorfindel, Apr 27 '15 at 08:06
Agreed and thanks for the quick response. Moving on, any way to access the 'Notifications' feature of a particular app inside the 'Settings' App using URL Schemes ? Which means having a reduced number of clicks to reach destination ? — Arvin Sanmuga Rajah, Apr 27 '15 at 08:15

I tried this code to prevent crashes from iOS versions and it's working for me:

if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] respondsToSelector:@selector(openURL:options:completionHandler:)]) {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString] options:@{} completionHandler:nil];
} else {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString]];
}
