I use flutter_wechat_assets_picker, but this lib show gallery list not include favorite album.

But iOS has been return favorite album(link), so can you add android version.

Thanks!

Sorry, I don't know, I open this issue because check WeChat app also show favorite album when image picker

In HUAWEI device, Photos app have favorite image feature.

When user tap favorite button, will show favorite album.

IOS has the concept of "smart album", which can automatically combine the "recently added" or "favorite photos" into one smart album. Android does not provide smart album, so we can only do it by code.

According to the official documents, a favorite column of MediaStore is provided in api30.

So, I think if we want to provide this favorite smart album, we need to use an option to let users decide whether to need it, because it will consume more performance. @AlexV525

If we add the extra IS_FAVORITE request, then it'll make some extra duration costs. Does that sound reasonable to you? @hhgz9527

reasonable， because wechat app show favorite album were some delays
