Nothing happens on iOS 10.3 on PickPhotoAsync or TakePhotoAsync

Bug

Version Number of Plugin: 2.6.2 Device Tested On: iPhone SE 10.3 Simulator Tested On: iPhone SE 10.3, iPhone 6 10.3

Expected Behavior

Show image picker or camera

Actual Behavior

Nothing shows… also no exception thrown… Untill I try to do it for the second time… then an Exception is shown (null Exception)

Steps to reproduce the Behavior

Code for TakePhotoAsyn:

var file = await CrossMedia.Current.TakePhotoAsync(new Plugin.Media.Abstractions.StoreCameraMediaOptions
                    {
                        Name = System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString("D") + ".jpg",
                        SaveToAlbum = true,
                        AllowCropping = true,
                        PhotoSize = Plugin.Media.Abstractions.PhotoSize.Medium,
                        CompressionQuality =70
                    });

                    if (file == null)
                    {
                        UserDialogs.Instance.Toast(AppResources.dialog_error_save_image);
                        return;
                    }

Code for PickPhotoAsync:

                   var file = await CrossMedia.Current.PickPhotoAsync(new Plugin.Media.Abstractions.PickMediaOptions
                    {
                        CompressionQuality=70,
                        PhotoSize = Plugin.Media.Abstractions.PhotoSize.Medium,
                    });
                    if (file == null)
                        return;
                    else
                        await Navigation.PushAsync(new SendImagePage(file, selectedContainer));

It works perfectly on Android! I’ve also added the rows to info.plist file:

<key>NSCameraUsageDescription</key>
	<string>This app needs access to the camera to take photos.</string>
	<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
	<string>This app needs access to photos.</string>

I had that problem as well, if I doesn’t call it directly from a buttons “Clicked” event. Try to put your code in Device.BeginInvokeOnMainThread(async () => { //code here }); This is working for me.

Closed as there are multiple work around and already fixed in: Xam.Plugin.Media 2.7.0.50-beta +
