Option to view custom albums in mobile missing

What’s The Bug?

When uploading an image in mobile, I can no longer see the option to view all the custom albums in my phone’s gallery. There are only two tabs:

  • Photos — show recent images
  • Albums — show non-custom Gallery albums: “Favorites”, “Camera”, “Screenshots”, and “Downloads”

Let’s say I have a custom album that I named “Icons”. This folder is no longer showing up, along with the rest of the albums/folders that I’ve created to keep my phone’s Gallery organized.

I currently have over 47,000 images on my phone, I can’t scroll forever to find what I need. (Especially since my icons aren’t recent downloads) :sad_but_relieved_face:

How To Reproduce It

  1. Open an object
  2. Open settings menu and select “Icon” or “Cover”
  3. Select “Upload” and see the lack of options

The Expected Behavior

There’s supposed to be an option to select via phone’s gallery.

Additional Context

I also mentioned it here in the past when inserting via /media.

I don’t know if it’s a bug or intended for Media, but I’m positive the feature I need used to be available for uploading custom icons because that’s how I upload icons for all my objects in Anytype.

This seems to have become the new norm, please fix. :folded_hands:t2: It’s now version 0.43.5 and it’s still a reoccurring pain point for me. :cry:

Still a hassle in 0.45.12. :cry: Will someone look into this, please?
