Save photo on use button click in camera app

My current code is :

- (IBAction)cameraButtonAction:(id)sender {   
    UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
    picker.allowsEditing = NO;
    picker.sourceType = (sender == cameraButton) ? UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera : UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum;
    [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES]; 
}

This is bringing up the default camera, but when I select use it does not save the picture. I have tried :

-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingImage:(UIImage *)image editingInfo:(NSDictionary *)editingInfo {
    UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(image, nil, nil, nil);
    [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

Every tutorial i have looked at, they make a custom camera app using a UIImageView but this is not what I want to do, I do not want to display the image back in the app and want to keep the default camera functions.

Your code is correct. But you didn't set the delegate

You are missing a single line here:

picker.delegate = self;

You need to add that in your cameraButtonAction method.

- (IBAction)cameraButtonAction:(id)sender
{   
    UIImagePickerController *picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
    picker.delegate = self;
    picker.allowsEditing = NO;
    picker.sourceType = (sender == cameraButton) ? UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera : UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeSavedPhotosAlbum;
    [self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES]; 
}
