Plugin to open native screens of iOS/android settings (maintained, end-2020)
NativeSettings plugin for Cordova (6/7)
The plugin allows you to open OS settings on iOS 8/9/10 and Android, via cordova-based app. For example, it will allow you to open the keyboard settings, Wifi, bluetooth etc (full list below).
Adding/Removing the Plugin
It will be saved to the config.xml file
Ionic Framework:
ionic cordova plugin (add|rm) cordova-open-native-settings
Cordova:
cordova plugin (add|rm) cordova-open-native-settings --save
or via npm (It will be saved to the package.json file)
npm (install|uninstall) cordova-open-native-settings --save
Using the plugin (opens Location Settings in Android and Application Settings in iOS)
cordova.plugins.settings.open(setting_constant, success_callback, failure_callback);
Example for iOS and Android - open Wifi settings
if (window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.settings) {
console.log('openNativeSettingsTest is active');
window.cordova.plugins.settings.open("wifi", function() {
console.log('opened settings');
},
function () {
console.log('failed to open settings');
}
);
} else {
console.log('openNativeSettingsTest is not active!');
}
In Android, by default it is opened in the same application as a new activity, the hardware back button will bring the user back to the previous activity (the app). In order to open settings as a new application (two applications will appear in "recent/opened" apps list) the following code can be used:
window.cordova.plugins.settings.open(["wifi", true], function() {}, function() {}); ....
