Question

From the docs of UIImagePickerController:

When the user taps a button to pick a newly-captured or saved image or
movie, or cancels the operation, dismiss the image picker using your
delegate object. For newly-captured media, your delegate can then save
it to the Camera Roll on the device. For previously-saved media, your
delegate can then use the image data according to the purpose of your
app.

So this reads like I MUST save the captured image to the Camera Roll. Is this true? Reason for rejection if not done?

Answer 1

No, you do not need to save to Camera roll when UIImagePickerController is dismissed. I have done this in several apps.
