Question:

It does not show some photos in certain apps on the device. I have to select certain images and video to use the apps.

Answer:

Starting from One UI 6.0 (Android U OS), there's a new feature called 'Select photos and videos.' This function allows users to grant access only to selected photos and videos within an app for enhanced privacy protection. Here's how to resolve this issue:

1. Allowing the app to access all photos and videos: This setting is under the 'Photos and videos' permission, which is currently set to 'Ask every time.' Change it to 'Always allow all' to give full access to your media files.

• Path: Settings > Apps > App Name > Permissions > Photos and videos > Set to Always allow all

2. Granting access to specific photos and videos: You can manually choose which photos and videos the app can access via its individual permission settings. Follow these steps to configure the 'Select photos and videos' option:

• Path: Settings > Apps > App Name > Permissions > Select photos and videos > Choose desired media files
