Problem

I just noticed it today while trying to attach an image in a web app. Last time I did this I was greeted with an image picker where I could tap Browse to get to the system image picker that allows me to go into Files or Google Photos among other file sources. This new picker doesn’t see Photos’ albums. Instead it presents some folders as albums. I don’t see an ability to get out of it to get to the system sources from the UI.

Solution

It seems like setting this flag to Enabled or Disabled brings back the old behavior.

I haven’t tested all the remaining values. It seems like for some (h/t @[email protected]) only Disabled brings up the old picker that allows to get to the system picker.

YMMV

    one of those values should add a vertical 3 dot menu in the top right corner of the new media picker, not sure which one though

      Interesting. If you find which one it is, I’ll add it to the text.
