Somewhere since iOS 26, the LockedCameraCapture framework gets in an unpredictable state after opening the main app from the LockedCamera extension using LockedCameraCaptureSession.openApplication(for userActivity:).
(Feedback with sample code to reproduce: FB21966835)
Opening the extension from the lock screen again doesn’t open the extension but puts the lock screen in a state as if it has. Content updated from LockedCameraCaptureManager.shared.sessionContentUpdates comes in inconsistently, usually needs the app to be opened again or the extension to be opened.
This makes using this extension impossible for me as I use it to record video files that manually need to be imported when the app is launched (so not through PhotoKit).
Does anybody have a suggestion to circumvent this issue or how to get this fixed?
