There are 250 .jpg files in this directory, but none of them show up

Hi! Can you try running termux-setup-storage once more, give Termux the All files access in the resulting dialog and try again?

If that doesn't make the .jpg files show up, does ls show a simple file? As in, what is the output of running the below?

touch ~/new-file
ls ~/

Turns out, you can't do it from inside Termux... You have to select:

Settings > Apps

Then click the hamburger and select:

Special Access

And then select:

All file access

And then turn the slider ON for Termux (the slider is OFF after installation)
