Description

The iOS Video Grabber requires the user permission to be used from iOS 7 onwards.
Automatically iOS will prompt the user for permission to use the camera.

  • If the user selects no, the app will crash.
  • If the user selects yes, the app will function normally and never be prompted again unless for In iOS 7.1 and iOS 8+ you can switch or turn off this permission from the Settings for any given app.
    If the user does this for an oF app that requires the Camera / iOS Video Grabber, it will crash on startup or when the camera is initialised.

This effects all oF versions and apps that use the camera.
