Photo permission is unnecessary on Android #6484

Open roxyabadi opened 4 days ago

roxyabadi commented 4 days ago

Steps to Reproduce

Open android application Create a post Tap camera or gallery entry point to add a photo or video The app requests permission of photos and videos then follows up with the Android photo picker which does not require permissions to use.

This looks especially bad when you only grant access to limited photos as it pops the photo picker twice in a row. See my video.
