SwiftUI Photo Picker - Compressed Images, UIViewControllerRepresentable

Coming back to this video 2 years later. My first iOS Developer tutorial I ever watched! I'm now confident in CreateML, async/await, MVVM, MVC, UIKit, MapKit, VisionKit, CoreData, remote notifications, and much more.

Yet I still struggle with UIImagePickerController lol

man you're a life saver!

Ney Sean i have an error in line 16 and try with different persons and this the same thing every time line 16 have an error and don’t know why

Hi Sean. With this method, could you save this image as Binary Data to a CoreData model? If so, what would that look like?

Very clear explanation of the concepts involved. Thank you very much Sean for this video.

Does anyone know how to save the photo using CoreData after publishing the photo?

Will this create a retain cycle? Because you have the ImagePicker references the Coordinator and the Coordinator also has a reference to the ImagePicker. Thanks

great, do you have any tip how to make after click button decide if take photo from camera or galery ?

This is one of exceptional videos. Over the last couple of years I've seen a couple of these Representable Coordinator type stuff. But as always, this gives enough logical background that's to-the-point enough to bring the concept across clearly.
Suppose one could do some sort of data-size check to dynamically choose a compression value, so that you don't accidentally compress a file that may already be small in the library.

Do you know how to pickup a Video from the gallery??

Good tutorial, but my image is not updating within the first view. It’s still stuck to the original State ui image

Thanks for the great Video! I wonder if it's also possible to have some kind of Video Picker, where the user can select a video from their library and it's then used inside the App. Does anyone know?

Thank You!

Great video as always! Different stuff and more painful is take a picture and rotate the device! Try it! Greetings

bruhhh your not allowed to be this good!! Cant believe I finally understood those stuff lol.

Hi but how can i cache them

I have a need to select pictures taken by the user's phone and save them into a list view in the app (basically a list of items including text and images). Would you use this method or the PHPicker Controller in iOS 14?

Great video. All the issues in between like not setting delegate or dismiss is actually good way of teaching I think, that's what everyone, at least I do while actually coding in real project. Also getting protocol stubs from xcode for free is also what I do 😃

Excellent tutorial! Is it normal that every time we select an image, it is automatically stored in the device?

Thank Allen!

Thanks, Sean, great tutorial... I learnt many important aspects of communicating between SwiftUI & UIKit using the coordinator.

One thing that I am still struggling with is if I have a UIKit app that is using Storyboard and now I want to update my first view controller with SwiftUI how do I do that arrangement in AppDelegate? Any pointers on this will be of great help.

Take care and more power to you...

Great videos and great pronunciation! Thanks!

I’m surprised you’re not doing this demonstration with PHPickerController. Any reason why?

Hey Sean...i love your videos...can make a request for the next video? Can show how to make own pod with SwiftUI? Tks!

Thanks for explaining the Coordinator class, haven't used it too much but seems less confusing now. I think I'll be using the new iOS 14 Photos picker however since I need multi-selection. I don't think the code will be too far off from this though.

Thanks Sean. Really appreciate this video and helped me out with my app :)

Congrats!!!

I want this for my Final Year project.. Nice. Thanks, Sean bro.

Sean great tutorial! However, I would like to know if there is a way for me to do this using a set of images from inside my app versus from my camera roll. Like creating a collectionView of images and then using one of them instead of my camera roll.
FYI really like your teaching style. Do you have any discounts for your teachable courses, I want to throw some funds your way but your course is just a little out of my budget currently. But I like your work and I respect the fact that you stepped out on your own. So I will support you the best I can, just keep the quality content coming.

Hey, nice tutorial!
By the way do you know any articles/videos that cover photo picker usage in case of limited access to the library. Thanks!
