ios: How to display "choose wireless connection" popup? - objective-c

If there is no internet connection and you start for example the safari app with Ipad or Iphone, a popup appears saying: "Choose wireless network"
Is there a way to force this popup to show up in my app when I want to?
The problem is, I have a button in my app which connects the user to facebook. After pressing the button the safari browser opens and shows the facebook authorization page. If there is no internet connection this popup appears, but there is no way to turn back to the app from there. So currently I check internet connection before allowing this authorization page to appear, but I also want to show this popup.

It will show up automatically if your app tries to access internet-based resource and there's no wifi connection established but there is a wifi access point nearby.

This dialog appears automatically if you have "Application uses Wi-Fi" set to YES in your ...-Info.plist and if there is no connection.

This is not possible. The pop-up you have seen before is in Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Ask to Join Networks -> ON/OFF
Setting this to ON allows the OS to prompt the user to join a Wi-Fi network if it finds any in reach and you are not currently connected to one.
Apps cannot show this prompt, it's a system-level prompt.

Controlling window size of public Wi-Fi connection page

Not sure how to reference this page, as I can't find any similar questions, but I'm building a Wi-Fi page to redirect users to once they connect to our public Wi-Fi, and I'm wondering if I can control the size of the pop-up connection page. On Windows, it's a full instance of Edge with an address bar, etc., but on Mac, it's a trimmed down, small Safari window. Is this possible?
Any help would be appreciated.

how to check network availablity in mobilefirst

I am developing an mobile application where I need to check if the device is connected to internet and if it is not connected then it should show an popup saying you are not connected to internet and it should have a option for settings on clicking which it should to take the settings of the mobile where the user can turn on the WIFI or mobile internet
There are two questions:
need to check if the device is connected to internet and if it is not
connected then it should show an popup saying you are not connected to
internet
You can use the WL.Device.getNetworkInfo API method, for example:
function wlCommonInit() {
WL.Device.getNetworkInfo(function (networkInfo) {
if (networkInfo.isNetworkConnected) {
alert ("connected");
} else {
alert ("not connected");
}
});
}
should have a option for settings on clicking which it should to take
the settings of the mobile device where the user can turn on the WIFI or
mobile internet
This could probably be implemented using a Cordova plug-in. Find a Cordova plug-in that allows you to open the settings screen of the device or even deeper, the settings > network setting screen of the device, there the user could do it. However, I would simply tell the user to go there on his own and not implement that... your choice, more complicated.

Opening wifi setting in IOS7

I'm testing a feature
that when I can't get wifi connection
I will show a alert view and a button to go to system wifi setting
I know that in IOS6.0 this can't be done
but today I downloaded google map with my Iphone 5(IOS 7.0.6)
If I didn't have Wifi and 3g it will pop out a view
and if I press setting I can go to wifi setting
So I think this feature can be done in IOS 7
Can anyone tell me how to do this??
And Sorry about my poor English!!
No this is not possible, the dialog you are seeing is system dialog saying that if you turn on WiFi you will get a better location fix. As a developer you have no control over these dialogs.

iOS bring up WiFi authentication sheet

I'm having a problem with my iPad app not bringing up the WiFi authentication when it tries to access the network. When I first open the app and need to connect the panel will show, however if I lock the iPad and come back to it after the WiFi login session has timed out, the panel doesn't display.
Is this something I need to be coding for? My understanding was the panel came up automatically whenever you tried to use the network.
I don't think you can code for it. Probably the user needs to toggle the wifi connection (switch it off and on) to get iOS to reconnect.
