How to specify a certain 'white' list of apps available for UIDocumentInteractionController's Open In feature? I could not find anything in UIDocumentInteractionController docs about it.

  • By 'white list' I mean a list of apps that are allowed to be presented in 'Open in' list. For instance, my app works with PDF files and I use UIDocumentInteractionController's 'Open in' feature so files can be opened in other apps but I want to limit 'Open in' apps list for security reasons. Say I only allow users to open PDF files from my app in certain apps. Commented Apr 1, 2013 at 7:34

I don't think this is possible. UIDocumentInteraction Controller will not allow you to limit the user from deciding how to open your document.

Refer to: Is there a way to limit the Applications shown in a UIDocumentInteractionController?

The only exception is in iOS 7, you can limit managed/non-managed apps to be on the "Open in" feature for managed and supervised devices.
