            Bug ID: 178123
           Summary: iOS 11: HTML5: camera in <input type="file"> doesn't
                    work anymore for standalone web apps
           Product: WebKit
           Version: Safari 11
          Hardware: iPhone / iPad
                OS: iOS 11
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Media Elements
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: lademann at zls.de

Summary:
The HTML-element 'input type="file"' allows to take a photo or video in mobile Safari. However, since iOS 11 this doesn't work anymore for web apps "installed" to the home screen with the meta tag "apple-mobile-web-app-capable" set to "yes": instead of the camera picture only a black screen appears.  

Steps to Reproduce:
Add a web app with a simple form and a single 'input type="file"' - Element to the home screen. Open it and tap on the file chooser button. Then select "Take photo".

Expected Results:
Camera should open and allow to take picture or video.

Actual Results:
Camera opens, but shows no picture and doesn't allow to take a picture or video.

Version/Build:
iPhone 7, iPad mini, iOS 11
