Environment: iOS 16 beta 2, beta 3. iPhone 11 Pro, 12 mini Steps to reproduce: Subscribe to Photo Library changes via PHPhotoLibraryChangeObserver, put some logs to track inserted/deleted objects: func photoLibraryDidChange(_ changeInstance: PHChange) { if let changeDetails = changes.changeDetails(for: allPhotosFetchResult) { for insertion in changeDetails.insertedObjects { print("🥶 INSERTED: ", insertion.localIdentifier) } for deletion in changeDetails.removedObjects { print("🥶 DELETED: ", deletion.localIdentifier) } } } Save a photo to camera roll with PHAssetCreationRequest Go to the Photo Library, delete the newly saved photo Come back to the app and watch the logs: 🥶 INSERTED:  903933C3-7B83-4212-8DF1-37C2AD3A923D/L0/001 🥶 DELETED:  39F673E7-C5AC-422C-8BAA-1BF865120BBF/L0/001 Expected result: localIdentifier of the saved and deleted asset is the same string in both logs. In fact: It's different. So it appears that either the localIdentifier of an asset gets changed after successful saving, or it's a bug in the Photos framework in iOS 16. I've checked - in iOS 15 it works fine (IDs in logs match).

iOS 16 Beta 3 introduces the "Shared Photo Library". PhotoKit however currently lacks any functionality to import photos/videos into the "Shared Photo Library" It would be welcome, if PHAssetCreationRequest could be extended with e.g. a property "destination" that defaults to the personal library, but can also be set to the shared library. Scenarios: 3rd party camera apps that should be able to import into the "Shared Library" Any type of family orientated apps that should be able to import into the "Shared Library" Filled this also as FB10577456

The smart albums PHAssetCollectionSubtypeSmartAlbumAllHidden now requires authorisation in iOS 16. How can we access PHAssetCollectionSubtypeSmartAlbumAllHidden from PhotoKit now and provide the necessary authorisation inside a 3rd party app? Cheers, Hendrik

Trying to follow along the code with PhotosPicker. It returns nil when loadTransferable(type:Image.self), and it works well using Data.self

Hello, Recently we added a change in our app that changed the resource addition to Photos - Until now we called addResourceWithType:fileURL:options: with PHAssetResourceCreationOptions.shouldMoveFile set to YES, and when we changed it to NO (the default value) we observed much more asset creation failures. Specifically we see a new error code in the procedure - PHPhotosErrorNotEnoughSpace. One can clearly see a connection between adding more storage to the file system and an asset creation failure that is related to storage, but we are struggling to understand a few things: The storage of the device is always higher than the video size, usually by a great amount - We observed failures for devices with 120GB free storage, while the video size was 200MB. Generally we save quite a lot of resources to the file system, so it is quite surprising to see supposedly storage issues when adding a relatively low amount of extra storage. The asset creation is part of a bigger procedure of encoding a video to a file system, and then moving/copying it to Photos. Is it that big of a difference to copy a video of 100MB-200MB instead of moving it, such that the overall procedure failure will increase drastically? Appreciate any help.

Pick 2 Photo with PhotosPicker Deselect 2 Photo in PhotosPicker And Done selection(PhotosPickerItem) doesn't change PhotosPicker(selection: $photoPickerItems, maxSelectionCount: 0, selectionBehavior: .ordered, matching: nil, preferredItemEncoding: .current, photoLibrary: .shared()) { Image(systemName: "photo") }

Our team has implemented PHPickerViewController to allow multiple photos to be selected. It works fine in the simulator but when tested on actual iPad we have this strange behaviour. The first time the gallery is displayed it works fine. If we try and display the gallery again it displays a window with this message “Unable to Load Items - [Try Again]”. If I tap [Try Again] or if I use our Gallery button it does display the gallery. And it keeps cycling through this behaviour. ie. every second attempt to display the gallery leads to the “Unable to Load Items” window.   Every time we display the gallery we dismiss the old instance and create/initialize a new instance of the controller. Our code is written in objective-c… -(void)initPHPickerController     {       [self dismiss];       mPHPickerController = nullref;           PHPickerConfiguration *config = [[PHPickerConfiguration alloc] init];       config.selectionLimit = 0; // 0 represents no selection limit.       config.filter = [PHPickerFilter imagesFilter];           config.preferredAssetRepresentationMode = PHPickerConfigurationAssetRepresentationModeCurrent;           PHPickerViewController *pickerViewController = [[PHPickerViewController alloc] initWithConfiguration:config];       pickerViewController.delegate = self;           mPHPickerController = pickerViewController;     }     - (void)dismiss     {       if (mPHPickerController)       {         [+mPHPickerController dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];       }       ...     } Any suggestions on how to fix this ? I have seen a post on stackoverflow that this may be a bug in iOS.

While trying to save a photo to a custom album on some devices we get the following error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (PHPhotosErrorDomain error 3300). code: 3300 This is the part of the code where the issue happens PHPhotoLibrary.shared().performChanges({ let assetChangeRequest = PHAssetChangeRequest.creationRequestForAsset(from: image) guard let placeholder = assetChangeRequest.placeholderForCreatedAsset else { return } let albumChangeRequest = PHAssetCollectionChangeRequest(for: album) albumChangeRequest?.addAssets([placeholder] as NSArray) }, completionHandler: { success, error in completion(success, error) }) I would be thankful for any tips since I am out of ideas.

Where is the .isEditing option???

I use PHPhotoLibrary in iOS to save JPG files to the camera roll. There is a difference in the date and time displayed in the "Photos" app depending on whether the 24-hour display setting in iOS is set to On or Off when saving. When saving with "24-hour display: Off", the date and time in the Exif of the JGP file is displayed. When saved with "24 Hour Display: On", the date and time when the file was saved is displayed. JPG files are saved with the following code. HPhotoLibrary.shared().performChanges({ PHAssetChangeRequest.creationRequestForAssetFromImage(atFileURL: jpgFileUrl) }, completionHandler: { (success: Bool, error: Error?) in print("success=\(success), error=\(String(describing: error))") }) Is this an iOS specification or a bug? Or is there a problem with the code? I would appreciate it if you could provide me with some information. Thank you in advance.

I use loadFileRepresentation(forTypeIdentifier:completionHandler:) to load video with PHPickerViewController What can I use load video with? // my sample code func loadPhoto(pickerItem: PhotosPickerItem) async throws -> Photo {     if let livePhoto = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: PHLivePhoto.self) {       let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: livePhoto)       return photo     } else if let url = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: URL.self) {       let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: url)       return photo     } else if let data = try await pickerItem.loadTransferable(type: Data.self) {       let photo: Photo = .init(id: pickerItem.itemIdentifier, item: data)       return photo     }     throw PhotoError.load   }

Will the code for the SwiftUI PhotosPicker app shown during the session be made available in the code sample area? Trying to follow along and duplicate the app, but not all of the code is visible. Thanks!

Used to be able to assign a Live Photo as a new Wallpaper showing the static and video image prior to iOS 16. The beta version of iOS 16.0 accepts the Live Photo as a static image only. Not sure if this is a bug in the current prerelease or a permanently dropped feature. Anyone else observed this issue?

Is there a way to update the metadata of a AVAsset/PHAsset to show a different still photo when the asset is not being played? If so what class should I look at to update the AVAsset or PHAsset? I am looking to edit the asset itself, not show a layer over the video. I would prefer to do this without trimming the video.

The app is a webview where there is a form where an input file image is loaded. The problem is that when selecting an image from the camera, the app crashes. If you can upload images from Photo LIbrary and Choose File

There's only a single function under PHPickerViewControllerDelegate which is didFinishPicking according to the documentation. How do I implement dismiss for the Cancel button that comes along when tapping out with PHPickerViewController? Have no problem if continue using UIImagePickerControllerDelegate, as it comes with imagePickerControllerDidCancel . However, if I were to implement with the new PHPickerViewController that currently only have a single function, how to enable proper dismiss right on the click of Cancel button instead of just relying the swipe down to dismiss the screen. Kindly advise. Thanks.
