I'm trying to find a way to use the default ringtone of an incoming call on an iPhone device.

Currently, I'm using the AVAudioplayer, i.e.

NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:@"CustomSound"];
AVAudioPlayer *aplayer=[[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url error:NULL];
aplayer.numberOfLoops=-1;
[aplayer play]

Is it possible to find the default Ringtone sound of the user and play it?

Thanks

The recommended way is to use CallKit. Your VoIP app will then get a lot of stuff for "free". When you inject an incoming call using CallKit, iOS will automatically play the proper ringtone.

there is no Public API for that, this was asked on SO in 2012 but it is still true today I think

see: How do I play the default Phone ringtone programmatically?

with undocumented enum values AudioServicesPlaySystemSound can do it but thats NOT really appstore safe.

see: Play alert sound (same as default message ringtone)

advice:

maybe use AudioServicesPlaySystemSound as: Sounds play at the current system audio volume, with no programmatic volume control available
