I don't think this is related to the library. Did you add FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION to your intent?

[huutho-dev]

Because intent start from FileManager, so I don't know add FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION to where.

I has add flag FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION like below image, but nothing change

What does the Uri return - intent.data?

Exactly what I thought. This library is for returning file paths from MediaStore, as shown in the demo application.

You are selecting a file with, what I assume is an app called File Manager. It then returns the Uri, you pass it to PickiT and then it crashes.

It's impossible to know what content://com.whatsapp.provider.media/item/61e3361d-9265-4816-a2af-2b07c727dcd7 is pointing to.

When you want to do what you are currently doing, you will have to use the Uri or copy the file to your applications folder and use that path.

I will be closing this issue because it is out of scope of what this library is intended for.

Yes, Thanks for supported.
