An Android library for selecting multiple images, videos, or voice recordings with camera and gallery support.
Media Picker is an Android library that enables developers to easily integrate media selection functionality into their apps. It allows users to pick multiple images, videos, or voice recordings from the camera, gallery, or both, with options for compression, scaling, and custom storage. It solves the problem of handling complex media selection logic and permissions in Android applications.
Android developers building apps that require media selection features, such as social media, photo editing, or content creation applications.
Developers choose Media Picker for its simplicity, flexibility, and performance. It offers a unified API for multiple media types, reduces boilerplate code for camera and gallery integration, and includes memory optimization features like image scaling and compression.

Provides a single API for picking images, videos, and voice recordings from camera, gallery, or both, reducing boilerplate code as shown in the builder patterns.
Includes configurable image compression levels and scaling options to prevent OutOfMemory errors, explicitly emphasized in the README for performance.
Offers mode selection, extension control, custom directories, and debugging modes, allowing fine-tuned adaptation to app needs.
With the RxJava extension, it enables observable-based media picking, catering to reactive Android development patterns with separate dependencies.
The README warns that version 2.x.x breaks backward compatibility, requiring careful migration and potentially disrupting existing projects.
A known issue prevents using allowOnlineImages and allowMultipleImages together, limiting functionality for apps that need both features.
Relies on overriding onActivityResult, which is deprecated in favor of the Activity Results API in modern Android development.
