Is there a way for a web app to access the native iPhone camera and photos? I do not want to use PhoneGap or iOS SDK. From this stackoverflow question a year back, it looks like iPhone camera is not available through Mobile Safari: Can you access the iPhone camera from Mobile Safari? . Is it still the case?

If I can't access camera app in a webapp what are my best options?

I used the iPhone app Picup. From my webapp, I called the Picup iPhone app which took the photos and sent to my Rails server.

No, you cannot access the camera API from a web app.
