The last app updates use the official Photo picker provided by Google. This was done as Google Play will start enforcing more strict rules around permissions to access device media, and the photo picker is the recommended way to handle it in a private way.
Sadly the photo picker seems to show only some pre-defined albums, and it seems it’s by design (bug report closed as by design), for now, the user has to pick the picture from the “Photos” tab.
This issue is to keep of track of user feedback and complaints so that we can decide if we want to come up with a custom solution.
