1 year ago We've recently been experiencing similar crashes on random android devices. We also use Cordova CLI 11.0.0, cordova-android 10.
We're not yet sure what to do. But it surely looks like some android version isn't compatible with camera plugin, as crashes didn't start with a new version, but randomly with ever bigger frequency.

1 year ago For what it's worth (Not sure if this information is relevant for this issue), Cordova uses the Android's Intent system. It's a way of delegating responsibilities to another app, which is the recommended approach that Google suggests. It's mainly used so that users don't need to give explicit permissions to dangerous (privacy sensitive) APIs to several apps, like the Camera permissions/APIs. Instead, apps can use the Intent system to effectively open an existing app to handle a specific task, such as a delegated Camera app to capture images on the behalf of another app.
At the basic level this should work with pretty much any Camera app, however more advanced features like cropping, or resizing images can cause issues depending on the camera app in use or how the user chooses which image format they use.
If the camera app allows you, I'd try experimenting with different camera settings (in the camera app itself), for example if it gives you a choice, try using an older/common format like PNG or JPG to see if it solves your issue.
If you're using the allowEdit option in the Cordova API, it is known to be defective as support is not guaranteed by the underlying Camera application, so try disabling it.

1 year ago I have tried setting the allowEdit as false and the format set is for PNG and JPG itself, still no luck on the issue. But all of a sudden it works well and crashes again while accessing the camera within the application.
