What Can Be Modified For An App In iOS?

I was looking for a resource that explains what parts of iOS and the Android OS can be changed and what parts can't be. I have an idea for an app and I wanted to do my due diligence before contacting a developer.

I have Googled a couple different terms but I have had no success. Any help is appreciated.

  • I dont think any part of iOS can be changed as its closed source.

    The Android OS is open source so every part of it can be changed, it is based on Linux.

  • Do you mean an app that you already have the source code to?

    • No I mean I am looking to find out what functions in the code can be messed with in iOS. Like a list or something that says that I can change things like the call screen or can make the light cut on but I can do something else.

      I am trying to figure out how to make an app work but I am not sure what my limitations are.

  • Unless the device has been rooted, you can't change anything.
    For android, look at the app ROM Toolbox for things that can be done.
