+`NSCameraUsageDescription` describes the reason that the app accesses the user's camera.
+When the system prompts the user to allow access, this string is displayed as part of the dialog box. If you didn't provide the usage description, the app will crash before showing the dialog. Also, Apple will reject apps that access private data but don't provide an usage description.
