How can i get the name of image picked through photo library in iphone?

by

import AssetsLibrary in your file:

#import <AssetsLibrary/AssetsLibrary.h>

And, in - (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info

put

// get the ref url
NSURL *refURL = [info valueForKey:UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL];

// define the block to call when we get the asset based on the url (below)
ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock resultblock = ^(ALAsset *imageAsset)
{
    ALAssetRepresentation *imageRep = [imageAsset defaultRepresentation];
    NSLog(@"[imageRep filename] : %@", [imageRep filename]);
};

// get the asset library and fetch the asset based on the ref url (pass in block above)
ALAssetsLibrary* assetslibrary = [[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init];
[assetslibrary assetForURL:refURL resultBlock:resultblock failureBlock:nil];

so you’ll get the image name in log.

*don’t forget to add existing framework: AssetsLibrary.framework
Steps:

  1. In the project navigator, select your project
  2. Select your target
  3. Select the ‘Build Phases’ tab
  4. Open ‘Link Binaries With Libraries’ expander
  5. Click the ‘+’ button
  6. Select your framework
  7. (optional) Drag and drop the added framework to the ‘Frameworks’ group
