Folder /B2A1EE50- ... changes every time you run application.

../Application/B2A1EE50-D800-4BB0-B475-6C7F210C913C/Documents/..

Which works for me is to store fileName and get documents folder.

Swift 3 +

Create getter for directory folder

var documentsUrl: URL {
    return FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask).first!
}

Save image :

private func save(image: UIImage) -> String? {
    let fileName = "FileName"
    let fileURL = documentsUrl.appendingPathComponent(fileName)
    if let imageData = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(image, 1.0) {
       try? imageData.write(to: fileURL, options: .atomic)
       return fileName // ----> Save fileName
    }
    print("Error saving image")
    return nil
}

Load image :

private func load(fileName: String) -> UIImage? {
    let fileURL = documentsUrl.appendingPathComponent(fileName)
    do {
        let imageData = try Data(contentsOf: fileURL)
        return UIImage(data: imageData)
    } catch {
        print("Error loading image : \(error)")
    }
    return nil
}
