I'm experiencing an issue with my app when saving images to the camera roll. This is intermittent, but it happens several times a day. The error I receive is the following:

Connection to assetsd was interrupted - assetsd exited, died, or closed the photo library

My code is unchanged from using my app daily on an iPhone 16 Pro with iOS 26. I never saw the issue on this device.

Here is an excerpt from my code for saving the image:

        var localIdentifier = String()
      PHPhotoLibrary.shared().performChanges({
          let albumChangeRequest = PHAssetCollectionChangeRequest(for: album)
          let assetCreationRequest = PHAssetCreationRequest.forAsset()
        
          let options = PHAssetResourceCreationOptions()
          assetCreationRequest.addResource(with: .photo, data: imageData, options: options)
          assetCreationRequest.creationDate = Date.now
          
          let placeHolder = assetCreationRequest.placeholderForCreatedAsset
          albumChangeRequest?.addAssets([placeHolder!] as NSArray)
          if placeHolder != nil {
              localIdentifier = (placeHolder?.localIdentifier)!
          }
      }) { (didSucceed, error) in
          OperationQueue.main.addOperation({
              didSucceed ? success(localIdentifier) : failure(error)
          })
      }

I'm not sure why this would be device specific but I have had users with iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air reporting the issue.
