Question

I know with below code will capture a image from ios 6+ safari mobile browser

Is there any other way of capturing a image from safari mobile browser using html5/JS?

Is there any alternative for WebRTC MediaStream API in iOS safari mobile browser?

Safari does not have webrtc support, so, no. What are you trying to do? — xdumaine, Jul 08 '15 at 17:53

Safari does not support WebRTC yet.

To start with WebRTC on iOS, you may explore this demo https://github.com/ISBX/apprtc-ios. It't not exactly the same as you're looking for. The demo app achieves video chat. But it should be trivial to get image
