alternative for MFMessageComposeViewController

I browsed around and saw that MFMessageComposeViewController doesn't support MMS, however some suggested using third party vendor to send MMS with photo attachments.

Someone know about a free vendor, or examples on using these mms email gateways on iOS devices with photo attachments?

I know how to send a text message using a the email gateway, but not a photo.

Also, anyone heard about a custom-made controller that uses开发者_运维问答 those email gateways, that i can integrate into my app, in the same way i intrgrate MFMessageComposeViewController?


Unfortunately, there is no way to do this currently. The iPhone has no public API for sending MMS. Only way you can achieve this is to use a providers MMS gateway directly, but this would not work worldwide. These three other stack overflow questions about MMS had the same conclusion:

How can my app send MMS with a photo?

Attach Local image in MMS in iphone

For the current iphone version, MMS is possible or not?


To programmatically send an MMS, you have four options:

  1. Use an email -> MMS gateway (e.g. 2125551234(at)vzwpix.com) - check out a full list of US email gateways at http://www.tipb.com/2009/01/09/i...

  2. Use a GSM/GPRS/EDGE/CDMA modem to send/receive via the MM1 protocol.

  3. Use a messaging aggregator such as mBlox, OpenMarket, etc or use a third party gateway who can abstract alot of the connection details such as Websnapme (www.websnapme.com).

  4. Use a direct connection to a carrier and use the MM7 protocol.

Option 4 is pretty much impossible for most people/companies so you would need to explore options 1 to 3.
