How can we access the SMS API from iPhone app?

Answer 1

This is possible starting from iOS 4.0; use the MFMessageComposeViewController from the MessageUI Framework.

Details and example: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#samplecode/MessageComposer/Introduction/Intro.html

Answer 2

Try this :

MFMessageComposeViewController *pickerSMS = [[MFMessageComposeViewController alloc] init];
pickerSMS.messageComposeDelegate = self;

pickerSMS.body = @"hello!";

[self presentModalViewController:pickerSMS animated:YES];
[pickerSMS release];
