Getting country name from country code
Swift 3
func countryName(from countryCode: String) -> String {
if let name = (Locale.current as NSLocale).displayName(forKey: .countryCode, value: countryCode) {
// Country name was found
return name
} else {
// Country name cannot be found
return countryCode
}
}
Get country code from country name in IOS
Jef's answer helped here, with slight additions.
NSArray *countryCodes = [NSLocale ISOCountryCodes];
NSMutableArray *countries = [NSMutableArray arrayWithCapacity:[countryCodes count]];
for (NSString *countryCode in countryCodes)
{
NSString *identifier = [NSLocale localeIdentifierFromComponents: [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject: countryCode forKey: NSLocaleCountryCode]];
NSString *country = [[[NSLocale alloc] initWithLocaleIdentifier:@"en_UK"] displayNameForKey: NSLocaleIdentifier value: identifier];
[countries addObject: country];
}
NSDictionary *codeForCountryDictionary = [[NSDictionary alloc] initWithObjects:countryCodes forKeys:countries];
Now go through the 'codeForCountryDictionary' with the name of the country for which you require the code, for example,
NSLog(@"%@",[codeForCountryDictionary objectForKey:@"Spain"]);
would yield the result as 'ES', which is the 2 letter country code for spain.
Retrieve country name using country code in app language not phone locale language
You just need to specify the language when initializing your Locale:
struct Country {
static func locale(for regionCode: String, language: String = "en") -> String? {
Locale(identifier: language + "_" + regionCode)
.localizedString(forRegionCode: regionCode)
}
}
Country.locale(for: "DE") // "Germany"
Country.locale(for: "DE", language: "de") // "Deutschland"
If you would like to automatically select the language based on the country/region code:
struct Country {
static func locale(for regionCode: String) -> String? {
let languageCode = Locale(identifier: regionCode).languageCode ?? "en"
return Locale(identifier: languageCode + "_" + regionCode)
.localizedString(forRegionCode: regionCode)
}
}
Country.locale(for: "DE") // "Deutschland"
How to get country phone code for given country name in Swift iOS?
My suggested answer is something like brute force method !
is to list all country names and its matched country phone code in a dictionary and use searching function that gives me the matched phone code to a specific country code
func getCountryPhonceCode (country : String) -> String
{
if count(country) == 2
{
let x : [String] = ["972", "IL",

Get device location (only country) in iOS
NSLocale is just a setting about currently used regional settings, it doesn't mean the actual country you're in.
Use CLLocationManager to get current location & CLGeocoder to perform reverse-geocoding. You can get country name from there.
Find current country from iPhone device
To find the country of the user's chosen language:
NSLocale *currentLocale = [NSLocale currentLocale]; // get the current locale.
NSString *countryCode = [currentLocale objectForKey:NSLocaleCountryCode];
// get country code, e.g. ES (Spain), FR (France), etc.
In Swift:
let currentLocale = NSLocale.currentLocale()
let countryCode = currentLocale.objectForKey(NSLocaleCountryCode) as? String
If you want to find the country code of the current timezone, see @chings228's answer.
If you want to find the country code of the device's physical location, you will need CoreLocation with reverse geocoding. See this question for detail: How can I get current location from user in iOS
How do I get a list of countries in Swift ios?
You can get a list of countries using the NSLocale class's isoCountryCodes which returns an array of [String]. From there, you get the country name by using NSLocale's displayName(forKey:) method. It looks like this:
var countries: [String] = []
for code in NSLocale.isoCountryCodes {
let id = NSLocale.localeIdentifier(fromComponents: [NSLocale.Key.countryCode.rawValue: code])
let name = NSLocale(localeIdentifier: "en_UK").displayName(forKey: NSLocale.Key.identifier, value: id) ?? "Country not found for code: \(code)"
countries.append(name)
}
print(countries)
