iPhone Settings

Is there any way to access the iPhone/iPod touch settings programatically ?

Thanks. Biranchi

Most of the user settings can be accessed by reading the property lists stored at /User/Library/Preferences/. The Emoji enabler applications all worked by modifying a settings plist in this folder.

Be careful not to delete any settings or leave them in an inconsistent state

Could you be more specific about what settings you would like to be able to access. There are API's to get at some information, but general access to the device is prohibited by the sandbox your applications run in.

Unfortunately not, also you can't launch the settings app from your own app as these answers explain.

Programmatically opening the settings app (iPhone) How do I launch my settings bundle from my application?
