Delete all local Images and videos taken using UIImagePickerController from the app ios swift

Question

I am using the UIImagePickerController to take Images and videos for the App. What i need to ensure is the app takes minimum storage. So as soon as i have taken the image/video i upload it to my server so that i can access it using a url now.

Thus what i need is whenever the app terminates , i want to clear all the images and videos taken , so as to ensure less memory is consumed.

Please note that i do not want to delete the file immediately after uploading. I know how to delete a file from a directory individually.

Kindly suggest some other approach if I am wrong.

Answer 1

no guarantee that applicationWillTerminate will ever get called may that is the reason you can not do that (Thus what i need is whenever the app terminates , i want to clear all the images and videos taken , so as to ensure less memory is consumed.) . so if your need to do anything before app exist then call applicationDidEnterBackground

but you can try on trick for that

Local notification on application termination
