Any plans to make the image picked more expansive so it can use other locations?
The old image picker was so much better that there’s no legitimate comparison, because the old one allowed you to use your gallery app, which is my case is Simple Gallery Pro from F-Droid because it’s the best one there is. I just went from being able to search my microSD card by filename to having some kind of web 3.0 abomination that just shows every picture on local storage in a feed, and an album pane with a whopping 3 albums from local storage. Massive, massive step back. Potentially a deal breaker.
I second this - I can’t seem to get Sync to work as a share target, and it doesn’t provide opening a gallery or standard file picker during submit, which makes sharing an old image from any folder it doesn’t decide is an “album” impossible. Really hope this gets sorted out
Just tested and the image picker extract pictures from the whole storage and that’s exactly the goal of the component : extract all pictures so you don’t have to give storage permission to your whole phone to the app
Its just seeing a tiny fraction of mine.
Never mind, this dumb old guy was just looking at albums instead of photos.
Yeah, not sure about this new image picker - it only seems to be able to access three folders, but I have a lot more than that. Is there a way to give Sync access to whichever folders I choose? Or better, to be able to access through my gallery app?
It’s no good?
It’s really not, which is Google’s fault. Just the ability to sidestep it for the user’s gallery app of choice would be worlds better
