This period focused on enhancing the image picker's usability and compatibility by adding comprehensive localization for 24 languages and supporting iOS 17's microphone permission API. Developers improved performance through lazy loading of album thumbnails and introduced new features such as a Core Image filter interface and minWidth filtering. The release also standardized the development environment by adding Xcode workspace configurations for both CocoaPods and Swift Package Manager.

An Xcode workspace file (contents.xcworkspacedata) has been added to the .swiftpm directory, enabling the package to be opened and edited directly within Xcode. This change improves the development workflow by allowing developers to use Xcode's native tools for debugging and code navigation without relying solely on command-line SPM commands.

The image picker now exposes a unified configuration object (YPImagePickerConfiguration) that allows you to customize the picker's appearance and behavior. You can adjust colors, fonts, icons, and wordings via dedicated sub-objects (YPColors, YPFonts, YPIcons, YPWordings), control library and video settings, enable or disable specific screens and steps (like filters or cropping), and manage multiple selection options. This replaces the previous scattered configuration approach with a single, structured entry point for tailoring the picker to your app's design.

The crop interface has been rebuilt to support a new circle crop type alongside existing rectangle options, with the overlay and toolbar now adapting to dark mode colors. Users can now select a circular crop shape, and the visual appearance of the crop area and surrounding curtains respects the system's dark mode setting.

Source/Filters/Crop · high confidence

The library introduces several new model structures and error types to support media handling and debugging. YPMediaItem is now an enum wrapping YPMediaPhoto and YPMediaVideo classes, which expose properties for original/modified images, EXIF metadata, PHAsset references, and video data fetching. YPError provides a generic localized error type, while YPTrimError handles specific video trimming failures. Supporting models include YPLibrarySelection for tracking crop and scroll state during multi-selection, YPDragDirection for gesture handling, YPFlashMode for camera flash control, and YPLog for conditional debug logging based on configuration.

Added a new photo filter view controller and supporting components that allow users to browse, preview, and apply Core Image filters to photos. The implementation includes a collection view for displaying filter thumbnails, a preview image view that supports long-press to compare with the original, and logic to apply selected filters asynchronously before saving the modified image.

Source/Filters/Photo · high confidence

The selections gallery now displays a horizontal collection of selected media items, allowing users to remove items via a dedicated remove button and edit photos or videos by tapping on them. The gallery layout snaps to center each item during scrolling, and the interface supports configuration for hiding the remove button, showing filters, and customizing navigation bar colors and fonts.

Users can now pinch to zoom the camera view when recording video, with the zoom level constrained by the new \maxCameraZoomFactor\ configuration option. Additionally, the device screen will no longer dim or lock while a video recording is in progress, ensuring the user can monitor the recording without interruption.

Source/Pages/Video · high confidence

Users can now trim videos and select a cover image within the image picker. This change introduces the YPVideoFiltersVC screen, which integrates the PryntTrimmerView framework to allow precise video duration adjustment, and adds a thumb selector for choosing the cover frame. The interface supports customization via YPConfig for trimmer colors, duration limits, and button text (e.g., 'Trim', 'Cover', 'Done'), and includes a dedicated YPVideoView component to handle video playback, play/pause toggles, and background playback prevention.

The photo capture interface now supports pinch-to-zoom and exclusive touch handling for the shot and flip buttons to prevent simultaneous activation. Focus behavior has been refined to ignore taps when the camera is not ready, and the flash button is now correctly hidden on the front camera. Additionally, the system prevents crashes by guarding against photo capture when no active video connection exists, and respects the silent mode configuration to suppress shutter sounds.

The library now uses a dedicated \YPPermissionManager\ to handle photo library, camera, and microphone access, introducing a consistent flow for checking and requesting permissions. A key behavioral update is the support for iOS 17's new microphone permission API, ensuring audio recording works correctly on the latest OS versions. Additionally, the photo library permission logic now explicitly grants access for users who have selected 'Limited Photos' access, preventing unnecessary permission prompts for users who have already granted partial access.

The Example app has been updated to include a LaunchScreen storyboard and associated asset catalog, providing a branded splash screen on startup. Additionally, the example configuration now explicitly enables the minWidth setting (config.library.minWidthForItem), allowing users to see how the picker filters out images that do not meet a specified width threshold.

Example · high confidence

The gallery now uses a dedicated bottom pager component (YPBottomPager) to manage navigation between multiple content screens. This new UI layer includes a scrollable view with paging enabled and a header menu that dynamically displays tabs for each added controller, allowing users to switch between gallery sections via swipe or tap. The pager automatically adjusts the header visibility based on the number of active screens and respects the hidesBottomBar configuration.

This change introduces several new helper classes in the Source/Helpers directory to support core image picker functionality. YPVideoProcessor now handles video cropping logic, including a fix to prevent crashes when video tracks are empty and support for non-square videos when the configuration allows it. YPDeviceOrientationHelper replaces the previous orientation detection method by leveraging the device's accelerometer for more reliable orientation tracking. Additionally, new files YPAlerts, YPLoadingView, YPLoaders, and YPPhotoSaver provide standardized UI components for alerts, loading states, and photo saving operations, while YPAccessibility introduces a protocol for setting accessibility information.

The image picker now consolidates all video export logic into a single centralized method, ensuring consistent application of compression settings, file type configurations, and length limits across the app. Additionally, the library browsing experience is enhanced by fetching low-resolution previews immediately while loading high-resolution images in the background, which reduces perceived loading times. The system also now caps the resolution of images retrieved from the library and camera to a configurable maximum size, helping to manage memory usage and improve performance.

Source/Helpers/Extensions · high confidence

The project now includes a dedicated Xcode workspace (YPImagePicker.xcworkspace) that references both the main project and the Pods directory. This change consolidates the build environment, ensuring that dependencies managed by CocoaPods are correctly linked and accessible within the IDE, replacing the previous setup where the example or pod references might have been handled differently.
