iOS 14 thumbnail don't appear in gallery when user chooses "Select Photos" permission

[jgos311]

In iOS 14, when users are prompted to give an app permission to access their photos, users have the option to "Select Photos" where the app will only have access to the photos selected by the user, as opposed to the user's entire Photo Library (see first screenshot).

On our app, when we prompt the user to allow access to their photos, and given the user chooses the "Select Photo" option, once the user has selected the photos they want our app to have access to, the thumbnails of the selected photos don't show up (see second screenshot below).

Following are the errors I see while debugging the issue: Jun 10 02:22:04 backboardd(CoreBrightness)[63] <Error>: invalid parameters Jun 10 02:22:04 nearbyd[126] <Error>: onHIDEvent HIDServiceClient is nil Jun 10 02:22:04 CAReportingService[197] <Error>: CAReportingSession.mm:309 no backends found, this session won't get sent to the server Jun 10 02:22:04 backboardd(CoreBrightness)[63] <Error>: invalid parameters Jun 10 02:22:04 nearbyd[126] <Error>: onHIDEvent HIDServiceClient is nil Jun 10 02:22:04 securityd(CoreFoundation)[119] <Error>: attempt to set <private> for key in <private> in non-persistent preferences domain CFPrefsPlistSource<> (Domain: securityd, User: kCFPreferencesCurrentUser, ByHost: No, Container: (null), Contents Need Refresh: Yes) Jun 10 02:22:04 kbd(KeyboardServices)[259] <Error>: -[_KSUserWordsSynchroniser accountDidChange:]_block_invoke Disabling syncing if necessary as no compatible account found Jun 10 02:22:04 tccd[42] <Error>: -[TCCDAccessIdentity initWithMessage:]: self.bundle=0x0, bundle:(null); for: com.apple.sensorkit.dummy-bundle-id Jun 10 02:22:04 itunescloudd[187] <Error>: Received unsupported darwin notification com.apple.tcc.access.changed Jun 10 02:22:04 amsaccountsd[85] <Error>: CKContainer: [F636E922] accountInfo.accountStatus == CKAccountStatusCouldNotDetermine Jun 10 02:22:04 SpringBoard(KeyboardArbiter)[60] <Error>: HW kbd: Failed to set keyboard focus pid: (com.apple.mobileslideshow.photo-picker) scene:(null) Jun 10 02:22:04 (AXRuntime)[4287] <Error>: Unknown client: <myapp> Jun 10 02:22:04 searchpartyd[139] <Error>: iCloud Account not available!

Appreciate any help on this. Thanks in advance.

Same problem here. It happened to me when I called "getPictures()" and then "Select Photos" and then hit cancel. Every time after that it will open with just a blank image gallery.

I'm also facing the same issue. Please give update on this?
