Moderation / Submission Settings of Youtube Direct - youtube

I have been trying to change the Submission Mode to NEW but it still on NEW OR EXISTING even after clicking on Save Changes button. I don't want users to submit existing videos and the "Submit an Existing Video" button should not be there. Any suggestions?

There's an unfortunate bug in the way that YouTube Direct uses Guice that causes the configuration object to get cached and reused as long as the JVM that is running YouTube Direct remains active. In practice, this normally means that the new settings will take effect after a couple of hours.
In general, our focus is on YouTube Direct Lite right now. If you'd like to learn more, please see

You can customize the JavaScript code directly to not display the Existing Video tab in YouTube Direct Lite.

How to automatically bring the url (share-link of share api) of the corresponding app page to the clipboard when a screenshot is detected

literally, I need to know how to automatically bring the url (share-link of share api) of the corresponding app page to the clipboard when a screenshot is detected..
I'm not sure the store allow my app.. but I really want to know it is technically possible
I tried this using Android broadcast receive, and talked with many senior programmer.
But everytime I asked, they were so pessimistic.
I just know how it works in technically.

How to work with Firebase App Indexing for IOS Apps

i am in the process of making my app with firebase i am pretty much done with that except Firebase App Indexing. I am very exited with this feature because it could help me to increase my app get more traffic from the web but the problem is i really can't able to see how to implement this. According to Firebase Docs i just need to register my app with this pice of code
[[FIRAppIndexing sharedInstance] registerApp:your Apple ID from iTunes Connect];
I have done that but what should i do after that?
1.My app is firebase app that means i don't have any website to host my content except firebase realtime database. Does my content is available for crawlers? if not how can i make available to them?
2.If i can able to show my content in the google search results i don't wanna show all the content and i wanna show just some of my content for example i have a social app for sharing General Knowledge questions, i wanna show just the question like "What is the highest mountain" in the search results and if the user want to see the answer it should take them to my app how can i do that?
3.As per docs i came to know that i need to create univiersal links for my app content to direct users from google search but how shold i do that ? Lets say should i crate universal links when the user create question?? if so how can i do that ??
Thank you very much for the help.
This is not currently possible on iOS using Firebase App Indexing. The situation is slightly different on Android, but that is not applicable to your question.
On iOS, Firebase App Indexing is simply highlighting pages on your website in Google search results that have corresponding content inside your app. This is achieved by piggybacking on Apple's Universal Links standard, and there is no proactive 'crawling' going on inside your app. This means unless you have a corresponding web page for your app with 1:1 content parity, you can't really benefit from Firebase App Indexing on iOS as it comes out-of-the-box.
The best workaround is to generate little 'placeholder pages' for every piece of content in your app, which the sole purpose of opening your app (if it is installed) or redirecting to the App Store (if it is not installed). Ideally you'll need some sort of deferred deep linking system so that users still see the correct content after downloading. Fun fact: this is essentially how HotelTonight operates their entire business model. Unfortunately Firebase's implementation is not mature enough to support this full flow, and Google hasn't quite figured out how to rank app-only content properly yet in search results so you will probably need to pro-actively submit your placeholder pages to them.
Shameless plug: at Branch, we provide all of the above as a free service. You can read more about it here and take a look at the set up docs here.

Facebook custom photo and video sharing action in iOS

I have video and photo sharing working fine in an iOS app using UIActivityViewController.
Now I want to upgrade it so that the app posts a custom OpenGraph story to the timeline. Something like "User posted Video from MySuperApp".
I've got the all the iOS side written, and I've got a Facebook app created and configured in the project, login, etc.
I'm a bit frustrated by the rest of the documentation, though:
The submission guidelines speak about a "user generated photos" permission that doesn't seem to be available anywhere in the app settings, or anywhere else in the documentation. Is that still required? Is there a similar permission for videos?
It says "Photos must be original and can only be those taken with a camera by the person who is publishing them". The app allows adding annotations/drawings on top of a photo. Does that still count as "original"? And I guess the normal image controls allow selecting images from an album, so I have no way to enforce this, do I? (Other than writing a completely custom camera control, I guess...)
The API allows to "stage" a photo for a story. Is it possible to stage a video, or do I need to upload it externally? Can I refer to a video in a user's album in a story?
Is it possible to use FBDialogs to post a story about a video, or do I need to write my own?
Update:
Current status: I wrote my own UIActivity to share on Facebook and my own activity view controller.
Making a custom story about a photo is straightforward, and covered by documentation and examples, but to summarize:
stage photo, returns url
create object, returns id
create action (returns id)
Make sure you set "explicitly_shared" to true, so the action appears in the timeline. It is a good idea to follow their recommendations for error handling as well, otherwise it is a pain to debug.
I am not further with videos, though. Uploading a video is easy ([FBRequest requestForUploadVideo]), but that returns an id. So far I have not been able to use this id in either an object or an action. Querying the graph API for that id doesn't return any information. The video appears on the timeline by itself as well.
I'm tempted to just ditch the custom story about the video.
Update:
Okay, based on the feedback here and on the Facebook group I have to assume that it is not possible to upload and share a video as part of a story. I'm going to strip the feature down to just upload the video to the album.

I want to create an action that allows my users to delete UIWebView History

I've found that the UIWebview with in my app is holding a lot of data and i want to allow the user to clear the history from the UIWebView, but as a fairly new programmer i don't quite know how to do this.
I'm using Xcode 4.2.1
If by history you mean the back and forward history the sorry there is no official way to delete history of UIWebView. There are few private methods (see this - How to clear back forward list in UIWebview on iPhone?) but if you use this your app will be rejected from app store.

Is there a function which lets you add functionality to an existing app on ios?

I am curious if it is possible to make an app that adds a functionality to an existing app on ipad, say safari. If yes, which function would add a button to safari?
My question is based on 2 app advertisements I saw, one added a button to safari, the other created an app itself. I didnt buy them yet, so I dont know if they really do what thet say.
Thanks
As far as I'm aware, I think the closest you get to adding functionality to an existing app would be creating a new app that allowed interaction with certain document types.
For example, you might create an app that can open and read PDF documents. On installing this app, you would then find that interacting with a PDF document on any app (such as in an email attachment, or opening a PDF in Safari) would show a new option to open the PDF in your app. This kind of interaction is achieved via the UIDocumentInteractionController class.
Beyond that, I believe you would have to create your own app from scratch based on an existing one in order to extend functionality (so, create the 'MyBrowser' app to behave like Safari, except with additional controls and features).
I'd love to be proven wrong, however.
