[Interest] Camera not worknig on IOS

[Jason H]

This would be par for Qt, because on Android you need JNI code to add a photo to the gallery as well.

I would agree I think that a function like this should be provided by Qt. But the workflow is not as simple as saving to the the writable location returned by QStandardPath.
(Qt actually internally has implemented the Android version, but it is not part of any public API.)

However what I want is to save in the camera roll, so I can easily access the video from the gallery like any other video saved.
