UIImagePickerController – How do I access the front facing camera by default?

UIImagePickerControllerCameraDeviceFront is not a valid enum for the sourceType property. The sourceType property defines whether you’re using the camera or the photo library. You need to set the cameraDevice property instead.

Objective-C

self.imgPicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
self.imgPicker.cameraDevice = UIImagePickerControllerCameraDeviceFront;

Swift 2

imgPicker.sourceType = .Camera
imgPicker.cameraDevice = .Front

Swift 3

imgPicker.sourceType = .camera
imgPicker.cameraDevice = .front
