Answer 1

There is no API for manual capture of Live Photos (that is, nothing analogous to the AVCapture APIs that offer direct control for capturing regular photos or video).

UIImagePickerController, which normally presents a UI allowing the user to capture a photo or video, can also capture Live Photos in iOS 9.1 or later. To allow Live Photo capture, set the image picker controller's mediaTypes property to include both kUTTypeImage and kUTTypeLivePhoto.
