Hold and Mute Actions

extension VoIPCallManager: CXProviderDelegate {
    nonisolated func providerDidReset(_ provider: CXProvider) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            for uuid in activeCalls.keys {
                disconnectCall(uuid)
            }
            activeCalls.removeAll()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        perform action: CXSetHeldCallAction
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            activeCalls[action.callUUID]?.isOnHold = action.isOnHold
            if action.isOnHold {
                pauseAudio(for: action.callUUID)
            } else {
                resumeAudio(for: action.callUUID)
            }
            action.fulfill()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        perform action: CXSetMutedCallAction
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            activeCalls[action.callUUID]?.isMuted = action.isMuted
            setMicrophoneMuted(action.isMuted)
            action.fulfill()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        perform action: CXAnswerCallAction
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            configureAudioSession()
            connectToServer(callUUID: action.callUUID)
            activeCalls[action.callUUID]?.isConnected = true
            action.fulfill()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        perform action: CXStartCallAction
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            configureAudioSession()
            provider.reportOutgoingCall(
                with: action.callUUID,
                startedConnectingAt: Date()
            )
            connectToServer(callUUID: action.callUUID)
            provider.reportOutgoingCall(
                with: action.callUUID,
                connectedAt: Date()
            )
            activeCalls[action.callUUID]?.isConnected = true
            action.fulfill()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        perform action: CXEndCallAction
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            disconnectCall(action.callUUID)
            activeCalls.removeValue(forKey: action.callUUID)
            action.fulfill()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        didActivate audioSession: AVAudioSession
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            startAudioEngine()
        }
    }

    nonisolated func provider(
        _ provider: CXProvider,
        didDeactivate audioSession: AVAudioSession
    ) {
        Task { @MainActor in
            stopAudioEngine()
        }
    }
}

Multiple Concurrent Calls

When a second call arrives while one is active, CallKit automatically puts the first call on hold. Handle the hold action to pause your audio stream:

nonisolated func provider(
    _ provider: CXProvider,
    perform action: CXSetHeldCallAction
) {
    Task { @MainActor in
        if action.isOnHold {
            // Pause the RTP stream for this call
            pauseMediaStream(for: action.callUUID)
        } else {
            // Resume the RTP stream
            resumeMediaStream(for: action.callUUID)
        }
        activeCalls[action.callUUID]?.isOnHold = action.isOnHold
        action.fulfill()
    }
}

Configure maximumCallGroups and maximumCallsPerCallGroup in CXProviderConfiguration to control how many concurrent calls your app supports.

Call State Tracking

Use CXCallObserver to monitor call state changes from outside the provider delegate:

import CallKit

final class CallStateObserver: NSObject, CXCallObserverDelegate {
    let observer = CXCallObserver()

    override init() {
        super.init()
        observer.setDelegate(self, queue: nil)
    }

    func callObserver(
        _ callObserver: CXCallObserver,
        callChanged call: CXCall
    ) {
        if call.hasEnded {
            print("Call \(call.uuid) ended")
        } else if call.hasConnected {
            print("Call \(call.uuid) connected")
        } else if call.isOutgoing {
            print("Outgoing call \(call.uuid) ringing")
        } else {
            print("Incoming call \(call.uuid) ringing")
        }
    }
}

End-to-End Encrypted VoIP Push Handling

For end-to-end encrypted calls where the push payload is encrypted, use a notification service extension with CXProvider.reportNewIncomingVoIPPushPayload:

import UserNotifications
import CallKit

final class NotificationService: UNNotificationServiceExtension {
    override func didReceive(
        _ request: UNNotificationRequest,
        withContentHandler contentHandler:
            @escaping (UNNotificationContent) -> Void
    ) {
        guard let encryptedPayload = request.content
            .userInfo["encrypted"] as? [AnyHashable: Any] else {
            contentHandler(request.content)
            return
        }

        let decryptedPayload = decryptPayload(encryptedPayload)

        CXProvider.reportNewIncomingVoIPPushPayload(
            decryptedPayload
        ) { error in
            if let error {
                // Show a missed-call notification instead
                let content = UNMutableNotificationContent()
                content.title = "Missed Call"
                content.body = decryptedPayload["callerName"] as? String ?? ""
                contentHandler(content)
            } else {
                // Call was reported; suppress the notification
                contentHandler(UNNotificationContent())
            }
        }
    }
}

This requires the com.apple.developer.usernotifications.filtering entitlement.

Call Directory Incremental Updates

After the first full load, use incremental updates to add or remove entries without reloading the entire dataset:

private func addOrRemoveIncrementalEntries(
    to context: CXCallDirectoryExtensionContext
) {
    let removedNumbers: [CXCallDirectoryPhoneNumber] = fetchRemovedNumbers()
    for number in removedNumbers {
        context.removeBlockingEntry(withPhoneNumber: number)
        context.removeIdentificationEntry(withPhoneNumber: number)
    }

    let newBlocked: [CXCallDirectoryPhoneNumber] = fetchNewBlockedNumbers()
    for number in newBlocked.sorted() {
        context.addBlockingEntry(withNextSequentialPhoneNumber: number)
    }

    let newIdentified: [(CXCallDirectoryPhoneNumber, String)] = fetchNewIdentified()
    for (number, label) in newIdentified.sorted(by: { $0.0 < $1.0 }) {
        context.addIdentificationEntry(
            withNextSequentialPhoneNumber: number,
            label: label
        )
    }
}

Testing VoIP Locally

Simulating VoIP Pushes

Use the Push Notifications Console or a command-line tool to send test pushes. The payload must target the VoIP topic (<bundle-id>.voip):

{
    "aps": {},
    "handle": "+15551234567",
    "callerName": "Test Caller",
    "hasVideo": false
}

Testing Without a Server

For development, you can bypass PushKit and directly call the incoming call reporting method:

#if DEBUG
func simulateIncomingCall() {
    let uuid = UUID()
    Task {
        try? await CallManager.shared.reportIncomingCall(
            uuid: uuid,
            handle: "+15551234567",
            hasVideo: false
        )
    }
}
#endif

Checking Extension Status

Verify that the Call Directory extension is enabled:

CXCallDirectoryManager.sharedInstance.getEnabledStatusForExtension(
    withIdentifier: "com.example.app.CallDirectory"
) { status, error in
    switch status {
    case .enabled:
        print("Extension is enabled")
    case .disabled:
        print("Extension is disabled -- prompt user to enable in Settings")
    case .unknown:
        print("Status unknown")
    @unknown default:
        break
    }
}
