# Feature Request ## Motivation Behind Feature On August 31 2024, a [new Google policy](https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/13986130) will take effect to restrict the usage of READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO permissions. These permissions are used by the Camera plugin. Google recommends using the [Android photo picker](https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage/shared/photopicker) in apps where it's not frequent to access these files. It would be great if this plugin allows using this photo picker instead of the READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO permissions. ## Feature Description If Android's photo picker works fine for all use cases of the plugin, then it would probably be better to remove all usage of READ_MEDIA_IMAGES and READ_MEDIA_VIDEO permissions and use the photo picker instead. If the permissions are still needed for some cases then we should probably need a parameter or preference to pick how do we want to get the media files: either using the permissions or using the picker. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
