I have a problem in with my contact type in iOS, I have successfully fetch phone number type like work, mobile, home, etc. using this code:

NSString *cellT = (__bridge NSString*) ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(numbersArr, j);
NSLog(@"Contact Type: %@", cellT);

this code will print:
_$!<Work>!$_

But I want only Work to display, how can I do this?

Use this ABAddressBookCopyLocalizedLabel at the time of type casting; to ignore _ $ ! these type of unnecessary scientific characters:

change your code by this code:

NSString *cellT = (__bridge NSString*) ABAddressBookCopyLocalizedLabel ( ABMultiValueCopyLabelAtIndex(numbersArr, j));
