According to http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/gg180730(v=vs.105).aspx#BKMK_wp8apps The Windows Phone SDK 8.0 does not contain tools to detect the capabilities required for apps that target Windows Phone 8. When you submit an app that targets Windows Phone 8 to the Store, capabilities are not analyzed and the app manifest file is not regenerated or corrected. In my application I am using CameraCaptureTask and ShareMediaTask to first capture a picture and then share. By default in my WMAppManifest file I had ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO, ID_CAP_NETWORKING, and ID_CAP_SENSORS. I do in fact use the MediaLibrary t gather a photo path for the ShareMediaTask, so I have left that capability in WMAppManifest. Do I need the other two as well if the actual image capture and sharing occurs not within my application but within the CameraCaptureTask and ShareMediaTask?

The ShareMediaTask does not have any capability requirements.
The CameraCaptureTask only requires that you specify the camera hardware capability.
For reference, the rules are defined in :
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Tools\Marketplace\Rules.xml"

In my project I currently have only specified `ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO` to access the photos on the device itself. Even though I am using `CameraCaptureTask` I did not include `ID_CAP_ISV_CAMERA` and it seems to be working on my device properly. Referencing my question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19213144/does-sharemediatask-require-a-data-connection/19243090?noredirect=1#19243090 that you answered, I'm assuming it's also the case that `CameraCaptureTask` does not have a capability requirement as well? – Matthew Oct 08 '13 at 13:37

@Matthew that's right. `CameraCaptureTask` does not have a capability requirement. – Matt Lacey Oct 09 '13 at 08:42
