What I can find online is all about retrieving information from Vine (through undocumented APIs). How can I upload the video in my app to Vine programmatically?
I just found this app can do this on the app store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/vinyet/id697065371
"For the first time, capture, enhance, and post your videos DIRECTLY to Vine or Instagram."
I found this: https://github.com/VineAPI/VineAPI/blob/master/endpoints.md
You need to use these requests: Login, Upload thumbnail, Upload video, Create post.
I don't know if it works or not, you have to try.
In any case, the use of undocumented (private) API can lead to bad consequences.

I would like to create a simple app that does some video playback (with a few extra controls) of videos that you would find in the videos app. I've been searching and searching for a way to access the videos but I haven't found a single API that plays from the videos app.
Every solution I find plays videos from the photos app. I have apps that access the videos library on my iPad/iPhone so I'm assuming it's possible. Does anyone have the api for this?
Apps cannot access data from other applications on iOS, you cannot access the data of other apps unless it's made available by the app via a web server etc.
Your best bet is to use UIImagePicker to load the videos and images that are on your phone.
You can check out a reference here.
As for getting the videos off the videos app, that's not really possible (as far as I know), but you are able to show just photos or just videos with UIImagePicker using the mediaTypes property.
In my app I want to give the user the option to record a video and share it. What is the easiest way to achieve this? (I have been trying to add video recording for days now and keep hitting dead ends). Can anyone offer some help?
To allow functionality to record videos within your app, please go to the Apple documentation for UIImagePickerController for taking pictures and movies
UIImagePickerController Class Reference Link
Once you have your video, sharing it is a little more difficult as unlike text or images, the movie file sizes can often be very large and may have to rule out simple sharing via email, text-message etc.
The best way to share in this case, would be to connect to an external API, like YouTube, where you can upload the video from the app. Here's a link to YouTube documentation for this

I suggest these as good places to start, as this is what you are asking for.
Hope this helps
According to the Instagram documentation, Instagram only allows API uploads for images (JPG, PNG).
A new iPhone app called Cinamatic allows users to upload videos to Instagram after loging in to the Instagram via Cinamatic.
Is video upload via the Instagram API now allowed? There is no mention on the public documentation.
According to this there might be the option for a white list of developers with access to the video uploads via the API. Any ideas?
At this time, uploading via the API is not possible.
following reasons:
Instagram is about your life on the go – we hope to encourage photos from within the app.
We want to fight spam & low quality photos.
Once we allow uploading from other sources, it's harder to control what comes into the Instagram ecosystem. All this being said, we're working on ways to ensure users have a consistent and high-quality experience on our platform.

It also doesn't work properly for me.
So I want to make an app with my own custom menu, from where I can have access to my videos on youtube. I know how to link individual videos but I want to be able to update it with a back end or just by adding more videos to my youtube playlists and not have to fully patch my app to add more content. wondering how you all might suggest I go about doing this.

I need to add the uploading video concept on twitter through my app. I have tried every possible solution i.e. oath, share kit but didn't get any success. I am able to post image with oauth as well as share kit. But when I tried share kit for uploading the video it make the incomplete yfrog link i.e. frog.com but when I click on the link there is nothing in that. Can anybody tell me that what I am doing wrong in this. Please help me out of this issue.
Thanks in advance.
