List of 25+ Hidden Secret iPhone Codes (MDC)

Here is the list of all Hidden Secret iPhone Codes. A mobile dial code (MDC), commonly known as Hidden Secret Mobile Codes,  is a phone number that allows the request and receipt of information directly to a mobile phone. MDC’s are also known in carrier terminology as “abbreviated dialing codes” (ADC’s). A mobile dial code combines a toll-free number, a web address and a short code into one simplified number. It is a 1-15 digit string of letters or numbers that is preceded by a combination of * or #. Mobile dial codes are dialed just like a regular telephone number. The caller can be presented with any one of a variety of responses that an advertiser defines – a voice or IVR call, a text message, a video or audio clip, a mobile coupon, game or an application.
