Save UIImage to photos album and then open Photos app.

Question

Hi,

Currently I am saving a UIImage to the photos album using UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum, which works fine.

Is there a way to then open the Photos app showing the just-saved photo? (I assume my app must close before opening Photos, which is fine.)

Simply opening the Photos app to the Saved Photos Album would be a not-quite-as-good alternative if the above isn't possible.

Thanks.

Answer 1

No, it's not possible using the SDK. If this is something you think is needed, you should file an enhancement request.

Answer 2

It is not possible to open the photos app. But as a workaround you can open the album where you saved the photo using UIImagePickerViewController. Then the user can click on the image and see it. That ways they wont even have to exit ur application
