How should I integrate video and photo functionality in iOS app?
I am working on a basic camera app. I have made the video part and photo part, and now need to integrate. So I was wondering, should I integrate them both into the same class/file? or should I spread them out into two separate VCs?. How would that work exactly?
Incase it helps: The app is almost the same as the snapchat camera, just a little more simple.

The easiest way of doing this (and the way I did it) is to build out the camera functionality and then the video capturing functionality in 2 separate classes. Once you do this you will find that many required protocols and functions will overlap. From this point it is quite simple, all you have to do is copy paste from the video class into the photo. The photo has more components to it that's why you should start there. For example: setupDevice() and setupInputOutput() should overlap. So in conclusion: yes I recommend integrating into one class and setting up 2 extensions: one for the AVFoundation Video protocols and the same for Photo.
Quick tips: set up a photoOutput and movieOutput, furthermore the capture session and previewLayer should work for both and thus there should only be one of each. I as well built my cam in Snapchat-esque fashion.
Tell me if you need extra guidance.

let pickerView = UIImagePickerController()
pickerView.mediaTypes = [kUTTypeMovie as String, kUTTypeImage as String]
pickerView.sourceType = .camera

return pickerView
}()
I have done below:
- Record video and save it to Album also send it to the server.
- Capture photo and send it to the server.
