Doubts about NetworkExtension iOS 9

I have been using NetworkExtension and I am having some doubts, and need help. In my entitlements is set:

<key>com.apple.developer.networking.HotspotHelper</key>
<true/>
<key>com.apple.external-accessory.wireless-configuration</key>
<true/>

I set in the Info.plist:

<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
<string>network-authentication</string>
</array>

In my controller I coded:

NSArray * networkInterfaces = [NEHotspotHelper supportedNetworkInterfaces];
NSLog(@"Networks %@",networkInterfaces);

But the return is nil.

I also tried register NEHotspotHelp, and after I have used [NEHotspotHelper supportedNetworkInterfaces] but return only the network connected.

NSMutableDictionary* options = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[options setObject:@"Hotspot" forKey:kNEHotspotHelperOptionDisplayName];

dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_queue_create("com.myapp.wifi", 0);
BOOL returnType = [NEHotspotHelper registerWithOptions:options queue:queue handler: ^(NEHotspotHelperCommand * cmd) {
}];
 NSArray * networkInterfaces = [NEHotspotHelper supportedNetworkInterfaces];
 NSLog(@"Networks %@",networkInterfaces);

Is possible list nearby networks in my application, without enter in the screen of Settings/Wifi?

When use [NEHotspotHelper supportedNetworkInterfaces] may I list all nearby networks?

Thanks a lot.

I resolved my problem, but is need enter in the screen of Settings/Wi-fi.

I listed nearby network in my application using:

NSMutableDictionary* options = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[options setObject:@"Connect using my app" forKey:kNEHotspotHelperOptionDisplayName];
dispatch_queue_t queue = dispatch_queue_create("com.myapp.wifi", 0);
[NEHotspotHelper registerWithOptions:optionsqueue:queue handler: ^(NEHotspotHelperCommand * cmd) {
if(cmd.commandType == kNEHotspotHelperCommandTypeFilterScanList){
    for (NEHotspotNetwork *eachNetwork in cmd.networkList) {
        // Get Informations of the network
        NSLog(@"%@", eachNetwork.SSID);
    }
}
}];
