NativeScript-Telephony

This is a Nativescript plugin to get data from the SIM card like the carrier name, mcc, mnc and country code and other system dependent additional info.

iOS Quirks

Promise.Resolves

{
  "carrierName": String,
  "countryCode": String,
  "mcc": String,
  "mnc": String,
  "allowsVOIP": Boolean,
}

Sadly there's nothing more we can get here.

Promise.Rejects

When using an emulator or a sim card does not exist.

Android Quirks

All permission dialogues are built into the Telephony function.
