Can I count the calls in iOS? If yes how? and If it's restricted by Apple what will be solution of it?

I am stuck somewhere, I am building an application, where I want to total numbers of calls (stats) only, No Call Duration, No Number, No contact Name... Just total numbers of call, is there any way which doesn't breach apple development policy.

because accessing call history data is not allowed, is there any event which can tell us the call count, or any services which shows specific status at the time of call so we can get the status of active call and number of calls by adding them in sum.

Please have a look of my query and give me best possible answers on basis of the same.

Regards, Andy

Unfortunately no. There is no API for that.

The information you seek is located in the Call History Database (call_history.db)see this wiki. This file is very useful in forensics but cannot be accessed on a non-jailbraked iphone using legit means. More information here and here.

It is however, under certain conditions, possible to detect the start of a call: see Detecting the call events in ios on SO. You can also check the Core Telephony Framework Reference. This will give you ways to access some call informations, such the unique identifier for the call. That may be enough for you to count calls.
