java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.synconset.ImagePicker

Question

please help me! I have a project in ionic, I install the Imagepicker plugin with capacitor(https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/image-picker). I built the project. I am doing the emulation on a mobile device from Android Studio, what I want is to be able to select the images from the device gallery, but when I click on the Select image button, the following error appears:

This seems to be a known issue of ImagePicker - see here.

Some workarounds seem to be:

removing the single line "com.synconset.imagepicker": "~2.1.8" from package.json. And "com.synconset.imagepicker": { "PHOTO_LIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION": "Add multiple photos" } shows warning while execute the commands like: cordova platform add android and cordova run android.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.synconset.ImagePicker
