5 years ago there was the same question where everybody answered
"No, you can't, it's iOS sandbox", in general, then it was a iOS 5,
but now is 2016 and iOS 9.3 is coming up and the same question:
My app need to know information (tittle, artist, album) about now playing song in system, that means it need to support any player like built-in Apple Music or Spotify, Bandcamp and more. I tried to access by MPMusicPlayerController.nowplayingitem
, but it works only with Apple Music app, I tried to call MPNowPlayingInfoCenter
, and as I understand, it just let me set some info to Control Centre and lock screen if your app is nowPlaying in iOS, but if not, it returns nil
.
Is there any way to do this? Swift answers welcome
