Picked image is rotated 90 degrees on Android

[dzebas]

Description When you pick image with PickAsync on Android result image is rotated by 90 degrees. Same code works fine in iOS.

Expected behavior Picked image should be displayed in same orientation as it was originally taken e.g. portrait or landscape.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

var request = new MediaPickRequest( 1, MediaFileType.Image )
{
    PresentationSourceBounds = PhotoSize.Full,
    Title = "Select image"
};

var results = await MediaGallery.PickAsync( request );
var file = results?.Files?.ToArray()?.First();

byte[] imageData;
var stream = await file.OpenReadAsync(); 

using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
{
    stream.CopyTo( ms );
    imageData = ms.ToArray();
}

return imageData;

Hi. This is correct behavior. Images are processed without any changes, See metadata

Thank you dimonovdd for a quick reply!

So if I want to display it the way it was originally taken, what should I do? You mentioned metadata, do you have any samples on how to use it?

Cheers.

See sample project. I use MetadataExtractor
