Here it is in ObjC but you can work out the “translation”

  1. First create your own collection view using UICollectionView.
  2. Load all images in some prep method like so:

`@property (strong, nonatomic) PHFetchResult *allPhotos;

PHFetchOptions *allPhotosOptions = [[PHFetchOptions alloc] init];
allPhotosOptions.sortDescriptors = @[[NSSortDescriptor sortDescriptorWithKey:@"creationDate" ascending:NO]];
    _allPhotos = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithMediaType:PHAssetMediaTypeImage options:allPhotosOptions];

3. Now display the images in your UICollectionView like so: PHAsset *asset = self.allPhotos[indexPath.item];
cell.selectedTick.hidden = YES;
cell.isSelected = NO;
[self.imageManager requestImageForAsset:asset
targetSize:CGSizeMake(100, 100)
contentMode:PHImageContentModeAspectFill
options:nil
resultHandler:^(UIImage *result, NSDictionary *info) {
cell.photo.image = result;
}];

return cell;

`
4. Finally in your didSelectItemAtIndexPath method add each array item to some dictionary you want to hold them or array and process the array.

Apple has an example of using the PHPhotoLibrary here:
