It's worth pointing out that Safari doesn't let any website access your iPhone's camera, microphone, or location by default. First, you get a pop-up, and unless you accidentally or intentionally gave it perms, the website won't have access to your camera or microphone.
On iOS 13 and up, you can also set the camera and microphone to be enabled by default: Go to Settings on your device. Scroll down and open Safari tab. Ensure Camera & Microphone are set to Allow.
Bottom Line: Camera and Microphone Safari iOS Based on the requirement, you can either allow or block the safari camera access and microphone access on the iPhone or iPad. By default, the permission is set to block, however, you can toggle the button to allow the camera and microphone.
Since iOS6, you can use
<input type="file" accept="image/*" capture="camera"> <input type="file" accept="video/*" capture="camera"> It will act like a regular file upload, but instead, it will open the iPhone camera and upload a picture or a video.
Hope this help someone.
