Hi Johnny

I don't think there is any such event any more. If you look at the specification from Apple, they only list CategoryID values up to 11. 

Have you tested that the phone actually sends this event?

Our examples only use the events documented by Apple above. 

Best regards

As Torbjørn pointed out, the ANCS specification lists ID 12 as an reserved value. I did some testing here as well to see if I could get the "activecall" event when answering a call, but I'm only getting these 2 events:

<info> app: Event:       Added
<info> app: Category ID: Incoming Call
<info> app: Category Cnt:1
<info> app: UID:         36
<info> app: Flags:
<info> app:  Important
<info> app:  Positive Action
<info> app:  Negative Action
<info> app: Performing Positive Action.

Do you have that Adafruit board to test with? It would be interesting to know if it works with the current iOS versions too.
