I have a web app and I want to take photos and then upload them to a server. Can this be done with a webapp?
Before apps use the camera or microphone on your iPhone, they're required to request your permission and explain why they're asking. For example, a social networking app may ask to use your camera so that you can take and upload pictures to that app.
Apps could be secretly accessing your smartphone's microphone and camera to spy on you, or collect data to serve you targeted ads. To protect yourself, you can download an app that lets you know when the microphone or camera are turned on. You can also invest in some hardware to block out the microphone and camera.
[edit] It's now possible, please see answers below.
No, webapp cannot access internal devices. Try PhoneGap to make the gap between your app and the internal devices. But that will compile an application, which need to be distrubuted via the Apple Store.
