ImagePicker.launchCameraAsync Only working on Expo Client & Android no iOS Device

[mrwhoof]

I have permissions granted, and it works on the Expo client and on Android, but on iOS when published to an app the camera never launches.

PickImage = async () => {
		this.setState({loadingCamera: true });
		console.log("try picking");
		let { status } = await Permissions.askAsync(Permissions.CAMERA);
		if (status !== 'granted') {
			this.setState({
				errorMessage: 'Permission to access camera was denied',
			});
		}

		let pickerResult = await ImagePicker.launchCameraAsync({
		  allowsEditing: false,
		});

		console.log(pickerResult);

		if (!pickerResult.cancelled) {
			this.setState({ image: pickerResult.uri, loadingCamera: false, });
		} else {			
			this.setState({ uploading: false, loadingCamera: false, });
		}
		
    	this.ManagePickedImage(pickerResult);
	};

Does anyone have any idea why this might be? I’m all out of things to try.

Hi! Do you think you could create an MCVE and upload it to Snack so we can reproduce this issue locally? It’ll be a lot easier to help if we can see all of the code necessary to recreate this issue. Thanks!

I was able to resolve it by adding Permissions.CAMERA_ROLL . I’m not sure why both are needed, but it resolved it so that’s good enough for me at the moment.

Thanks for the reply!
