Warpcast

WIP: Warpcast Improvement Proposal

Every time I upload a photo Warpcast asks me to update my photo access. Seems unnecessary, given that the app has private access. 

Ideally, I could set photo library access to “None” and access photos via the private access picker- without the pesky prompts.

I think if you use the right photo picker it won't even prompt the user for photo access at all:

Do other apps work like this if you select none?

iOS level setting?

Yep exactly- I hope more apps use this photo picker that doesn’t require any kind of photo permission at all

Full Photos Access is a privacy concern. For example, any app will full access can get all geolocation data with timestamps from all your photos. It's not considered a good practice.

Good call. This annoys me as well — will check if its something we can fix or a limitation of React Native permissions.
