Setup Configuration

Please check if use cameraPicker {support Android, iOS, Web} image_picker with image crop functionality image_cropper.
Please check if use imagePicker {support Android, iOS, Web} image_picker with image crop functionality image_cropper.
Please check if use filePicker file_picker.
Please check if use viewFile open_filex or open_share_plus.

Android

The Android implementation support to pick (multiple) images on Android 4.3 or higher.

If use image crop functionality, Add UCropActivity into your AndroidManifest.xml More info please check image_cropper.

<activity
    android:name="com.yalantis.ucrop.UCropActivity"
    android:screenOrientation="portrait"
    android:theme="@style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"/>

Note: From v1.2.0, you need to migrate your android project to v2 embedding (detail)

No configuration required - the plugin should work out of the box. It is however highly recommended to prepare for Android killing the application when low on memory. How to prepare for this is discussed in the Handling MainActivity destruction on Android section to image_picker library. More info please check image_picker.

It is no longer required to add android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true" as an attribute to the <application> tag in AndroidManifest.xml, as file_picker_plus has been updated to make use of scoped storage.

iOS

This plugin requires iOS 9.0 or higher.

The iOS implementation uses PHPicker to pick (multiple) images on iOS 14 or higher. As a result of implementing PHPicker it becomes impossible to pick HEIC images on the iOS simulator in iOS 14+. This is a known issue. Please test this on a real device, or test with non-HEIC images until Apple solves this issue. 63426347 - Apple known issue
