[Error: convert failed for Users/thehe/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/A69D905C-4531-438C-9123-85D8EE81EC54/data/Containers/Data/Application/06CC0F2D-3D96-4734-8AAB-05816F14F6B7/tmp/com.vedax.vedaxlinkv2-Inbox/IMG_1668.mp4.MOV, error: The operation could not be completed]

Not working with latest iOS versions

This code working fine for me
