I generated an asset in the photolibrary by adding the unedited image, adjustmentData, and edited image with PHAssetCreationRequest.addResouce(). The image is saved in the photolibrary as HEIF. (Check with the photolibrary) Then, when I save the image generated with PHAssetCreationRequest.addResouce() to the Files app, it becomes JPEG. On the other hand, even if I edit an image taken with the camera and save it to the Files app, it still maintains the HEIF. Do you know why this happens? Also, how can I maintain the HEIF even when saving it in the Files app? Thanks.

What is the purpose of AdjustmentsSecondary.data included in the PHAssetResource for a cleaned-up image? When using creationRequest.addResource, what should be set for the PHAssetResourceType? If I set the PHAssetResourceType as follows to create an asset, it appears correctly in the camera roll. However, when attempting to edit the image in the Photos app, the app crashes: IMG_5332.HEIC → .photo FullSizeRender.HEIC → .fullSizePhoto Adjustments.plist → .adjustmentData AdjustmentsSecondary.data → .adjustmentData

I am developing an iOS camera app that can record video directly to external storage connected to an iPhone. To detect whether an external USB storage device is connected and to obtain its URL, I am considering using AVExternalStorageDeviceDiscoverySession. However, when checking support using AVExternalStorageDeviceDiscoverySession.isSupported, I observe that it returns true only on Pro model iPhones, and false on non-Pro models in my environment. I have reviewed Apple’s official documentation, but I could not find any clear description of the supported devices or requirements (for example, whether this API is limited to Pro models or requires specific hardware capabilities). I would appreciate any information regarding the following points: ●The actual requirements for AVExternalStorageDeviceDiscoverySession to be supported Device limitations (Pro vs non-Pro models) Hardware requirements (USB controller, external recording capability, etc.) iOS version dependencies ●Whether support for non-Pro models is planned in the future Tested environments iPhone 16 Pro (iOS 18.7.1) → isSupported == true iPhone 16e (iOS 26.2) → isSupported == false iPhone 17 (iOS 26.2) → isSupported == false iPhone Air (iOS 26.2) → isSupported == false If anyone has observed similar behavior or has official information from Apple regarding this API, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

I got a slow-motion video asset from the camera roll. But I can't get the URL from that asset. Do you know how to get the URL?
