Get the creation date of a contact

  • 772

Using the new Contacts Framework in iOS 9, how can I get the contact creation date?

In previous versions, using the Address Book Framework, you could do:

ABRecordRef person = ...
NSDate *creationDate = (__bridge_transfer NSDate *)ABRecordCopyValue(person, kABPersonCreationDateProperty);

but using the new framework I didn't find any property on CNContactnor any "key" to be able to get this value.

    Friend, definitely accessing that property with him Contacts Frameworkis impossible, since it does not exist. The only way is using the ABFor a wrapper of ABFlike APAddressBook. Maybe if you generate a ticket to Appleyou can report the problem since it is not the only one.
