It seems Apple built in API support to test to see if your iPad had a Front Facing Camera, Zoom and a Camera Flash. The front facing camera would, of course, be used for video chat, while Zoom and Camera Flash are often requested features for the iPhone’s camera.
We told you that one of the hottest thing in the new SDK, update released yesterday, was the presence of the photos.app in the iPad SDK. But boy, how wrong were we? Digging deeper into the code, MacRumors found out that Apple built in API support to test to see if your iPad had a Front Facing Camera, Zoom and a Camera Flash.
