Is there any way to play .amr files in IOS swift?

Question

I have some audio files which are in amr format, which I cant convert to any other format, Is there any way to play this files in IOS using swift(AVFoundation)?

I tried this code

var audioPlaying = AVAudioPlayer()
audioPlaying = AVAudioPlayer(contentsOfURL: NSURL(fileURLWithPath:
       NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("music", ofType: "mp3")!), error: nil)
audioPlaying.play()

but when I use the "amr" in ofType:, getting an error which file not exist.

Answer 1

The Opencore-AMR iOS framework is probably your best starting point.

github.com/feuvan/opencore-amr-iOS

Also here's a guide on how to compile it for iOS as it's not an easy task :

Answer 2

AMR format is no longer supported by Apple (since iOS 4.3).

If you want to Play or Record one, you have to use some tools (like opencore-amr library) to change the format.
