Bug Report

Problem

In Version 5.0.2, I was not able to select video from the photo library.

What is expected to happen?

The video should be selected, and the getPicture method should return the path to the selected video.

What does actually happen?

The app crashes on selecting the video.

Hey, I had this issue when my phone was connected to xcode while running the app on a physical device, but it did always work on the simulator. I got it working on the physical device when I unplugged the cable and restart the app on my phone. I dont know what causes the issue though. Hope this helps I got everything working now with video uploading on IOS, so if you need some more help contact me.

I'm having a similar issue, except my app doesn't crash, it just returns null from the getPicture(options) promise. There is no error either.

The same thing happened to me. I used this fork and now it works correctly: #760

To use it while the pull request is not merged, use this command:
