It’s a big pain because then you have a double-picker: first pick the pictures in the native dialog asking you to decide which pictures the app should have access to, and then select again the pictures you want but this time in the WhatsApp picker. It’s very awkward.
- trinix912 1y agoA solution would be that Apple builds a privacy preserving picker in the OS, then mandates apps use it instead of giving them access to the camera roll and letting them roll their own pickers in the first place.

- enigmo 1y agothis already exists, many apps use it. I do wish it was mandatory for _all_ apps to use it instead of being optional.
