Permissions

(copied from React Native documentation)

The user's permission is required in order to access the Camera Roll on devices running iOS 10 or later. Add the NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription key in your Info.plist with a string that describes how your app will use this data. This key will appear as Privacy - Photo Library Usage Description in Xcode.

const pickedPhotos = [];
const App = () => (
  <PhotoPicker
    color="blue"
    scale={1}

    onLimitReach={() => Alert.alert("You can't pick more than 3 photos!")}
    onChange={photos => {
      pickedPhotos = photos;
    }}
  />
