The SIM API provides functions to obtain information from the SIM card, as well as SIM status.

Required Header

#include <telephony.h>

Overview

The Telephony SIM API allows you to extract information stored on a SIM card, but not to change the information.

Related Features

This API is related with the following feature:

http://tizen.org/feature/network.telephony

It is recommended to design feature related codes in your application for reliability.

You can check if a device supports the related features for this API by using System Information, thereby controlling the procedure of your application.

To ensure your application is only running on the device with specific features, please define the features in your manifest file using the manifest editor in the SDK.
