Why can't I register my iOS application to handle the image file type?

Question

I have a problem registering image file types to my application. I tried adding the code below to my plist but nothing happens.

CFBundleDocumentTy         


        

Answer 1

Per Apple's documentation, "to add the document type do the following:

• Click on the disclosure button for Document Types to open the document types.
• In the “Types” section fill in the UTI for the new type.
• For the key value type: CFBundleTypeRole.
• For the value type: Editor.
• For the key value type: LSHandlerRank.
• For the value type: Owner."

This works for me using public.image as the UTI.
