openURL   is deprecated  first deprecated in iOS 10 0 - Please use openURL options completionHandler  instead  in Objective-c iOS 10  use    NSString  phoneNumber      tel     stringByAppendingString mymobileNO titleLabel text     UIApplication sharedApplication  openURL  NSURL URLWithString phoneNumber  options     completionHandler nil

Tried the Swift 3 option above  but it didnt work  I think you need the following if you are to run against iOS 10  on Swift 3   Swift 3  iOS 10     let phoneNumber   mymobileNO titleLabel text        UIApplication shared open URL string  phoneNumber    options       completionHandler  nil

Probably the mymobileNO titleLabel text value doesn t include the scheme tel     Your code should look like this   NSString  phoneNumber      tel     stringByAppendingString mymobileNO titleLabel text     UIApplication sharedApplication  openURL  NSURL URLWithString phoneNumber

To go back to original app you can use telprompt    instead of tel    - The tell prompt will prompt the user first  but when the call is finished it will go back to your app   NSString  phoneNumber      telprompt     stringByAppendingString mymobileNO titleLabel text     UIApplication sharedApplication  openURL  NSURL URLWithString phoneNumber

Merging the answers of  Cristian Radu and  Craig Mellon  and the comment from  joel d  you should do   NSURL  urlOption1    NSURL URLWithString    telprompt     stringByAppendingString phone    NSURL  urlOption2    NSURL URLWithString    tel     stringByAppendingString phone    NSURL  targetURL   nil   if   UIApplication sharedApplication canOpenURL urlOption1         targetURL   urlOption1    else if   UIApplication sharedApplication canOpenURL urlOption2         targetURL   urlOption2     if  targetURL        if   available iOS 10 0                 UIApplication sharedApplication openURL targetURL options     completionHandler nil         else    pragma clang diagnostic push  pragma clang diagnostic ignored  -Wdeprecated-declarations           UIApplication sharedApplication openURL targetURL    pragma clang diagnostic pop            This will first try to use the  telprompt     URL  and if that fails  it will use the  tel     URL  If both fails  you re trying to place a phone call on an iPad or iPod Touch   Swift Version    let phone   mymobileNO titleLabel text let phoneUrl   URL string   telprompt     phone   let phoneFallbackUrl   URL string   tel     phone   if phoneUrl    nil  amp  amp  UIApplication shared canOpenUrl phoneUrl        UIApplication shared open phoneUrl   options  String Any        success  in     if  success             Show an error message  Failed opening the url             else if phoneFallbackUrl    nil  amp  amp  UIApplication shared canOpenUrl phoneFallbackUrl        UIApplication shared open phoneFallbackUrl   options  String Any        success  in     if  success             Show an error message  Failed opening the url             else          Show an error message  Your device can not do phone calls
