Move instead of copy to PHPhotoLibrary

Question

My iOS app records a video (in NSTemporaryDirectory()/...) and I want to save it to the camera roll.

This works fine but to save disk space I would like to move the file to the camera roll, not copy it. Is that possible?

Firstly you can save it to camera roll, then you can remove source file via removeItemAtPath:error method of NSFileManager when saving is completed.

but this needs double memory temporarily : copy then delete instead of move – Thomas Sep 28 '16 at 08:08
