I want to share/post photo on Instagram from my app and I could do it using iPhone hooks which opens Instagram app.
But I couldn't find way to come back to my app after sharing photo.
Let me know if it is supported by Instagram. If not then please suggest alternative way for same.
This isn't supported with the instagram app, but in IOS 9 they introduced a button on the left of the status bar which says "back to.." to go back to whatever app opened this one. A rather nice unpublicised addition if you ask me

Hello Stackoverflow, I have an apple app idea but am not exactly sure
if it's technically possible to implement it. This is because I know that Apple is pretty strict on its designs.
App Description:
This app is basically Siri suggestion on steroids. As iPhone users know, apple has a AppSwitcher feature's where you can easily switch between already opened apps. Hence, what this app should do is use the app switcher feature's to switch between suggested apps, instead of already opened apps. For instance, if I have Instagram open and swipe to the right at the bottom edge of the screen, my next most suggest app will show up. Or if I have Instagram open and swipe upwards, it will show me the next 5 most suggest apps.
I am going to develop an application for kids. That I needed is I have to lock the home button permanently for this particular application but I didn't get any solution for this.
For kids, there is a feature in the iPhone setting called "Guided Access" this setting lock the phone with one app. This could be helpful for you. You can mention this in your app.
You can use this API to do programmatically. It was introduced in WWDC 2017. For more information how to use API and lock in a specific way. Please check this video. For doing programmatically without any device management it has been explained at 15:40th minute.
My app requests access to the iPhone/iPad camera. This results in the native iOS popup to appear, asking for user confirmation.
Is there a way in which I can dismiss this iOS popup (so before the user has made the OK / Don't Allow choice)?
For recent versions of iOS this popup automatically appears when you request write or read access for iOS Photo Library or use some of the AVFoundation framework components.
You can not dismiss it programmatically but you sure can create your own alert before showing the system one so you can have more control over what the user does.
It is the case in many 3rd party apps because when the user declines the access, it's not easy to ask them to go to settings and re-enable it from there. One of the easiest examples to implement would be something like this.
I am using an activity view controller for sharing in my app. All the apps are visible in share but Facebook Messenger and Instagram are not there. I also tapped on the more button but these two apps are not there.
You cannot provide code for including third-party apps in the default UIActivityViewController share dialog. If the app is downloaded on the device, the option will appear.
The title pretty much says it all. I need to explain to the user how to add my iMessage App to their phone, is there a way to simply link them straight to it?
