Additionally I would check Intsruments documentation, as in one of documents apple says:

Note: For your protection, the instrument does not allow you to process any application that is not code-signed with your provisioning profile. This includes any copy that has been downloaded from the iTunes App Store.

The UI automation APIs are intended for automated testing, not automatic functionality in a shipping app.

To answer your question, no, you cannot control the UI of other apps such as SMS or Phone using the automation APIs.

If you submit an app to the App Store that contains these APIs I'm pretty sure your app will be rejected very quickly.
