Product:iOS + SDK Product Version:12.0
Classification:Feature (New) Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
We want to set allowsEditing = true if mediaType == video, but disable it if it’s an image when picking media from library. This is because we want to use the videoMaximumDuration property, which only works if allowsEditing == false.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to find a delegate that enables that
2. Try to find a property that finds that

Expected Results:
You can customize the behavior based on the selected mediaType

Actual Results:
You’re sad and you need to implement your own picker, which is bad for privacy reasons as you have to ask for permission to read the whole library.

Version:
12.0
