iOS - Media Files are stored in tmp

[princeandrewdiana]

Good Day!

In iOS, the media file is stored in the 'tmp' directory. The file in the 'tmp' has a different name and size compared to the file that is found in the Photos app. I need to get the original file or file path with the correct file size and send it to a server. In android, it worked like a charm and I was able to get the original file.

Thank you!

Having the same Problem, but here (ios 12) my captured video is not even accessible by the photos app.

The file is stored in
/private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/F9D7blablala-9D45-4D7E-A79B-960EC8F3C918/tmp/56371876229__65BD7FDC-D757-4E78-8DB3-F9D7blablala.MOV

How can I make it list in the photos app?

This also results in two different hashes for the two files (Photos app and tmp directory). Any hashing-based functionality is broken by this / has an inconsistent behavior.
@janpio Any suggestion how to avoid this pitfall?

It would be nice if the videos were available on Photos app.
