Additional Required Setup (Please Read!)

Android

In your BaseActivity or MainActivity (for Xamarin.Forms) add this code:

Add to Activity:

public override void OnRequestPermissionsResult(int requestCode, string[] permissions, Android.Content.PM.Permission[] grantResults) { Plugin.Permissions.PermissionsImplementation.Current.OnRequestPermissionsResult(requestCode, permissions, grantResults); }

The WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions are required, but the library will automatically add this for you. Additionally, if your users are running Marshmallow the Plugin will automatically prompt them for runtime permissions.

Additionally, the following has been added for you: [assembly: UsesFeature("android.hardware.camera", Required = false)] [assembly: UsesFeature("android.hardware.camera.autofocus", Required = false)]

You must also add a few additional configuration files to adhere to the new strict mode:

1.) Add the following to your AndroidManifest.xml inside the tags:

2.) Add a new folder called xml into your Resources folder and add a new XML file called file_paths.xml

Android Current Activity Setup

This plugin uses the Current Activity Plugin to get access to the current Android Activity. Be sure to complete the full setup if a MainApplication.cs file was not automatically added to your application. Please fully read through the Current Activity Plugin Documentation. At an absolute minimum you must set the following in your Activity's OnCreate method:

CrossCurrentActivity.Current.Init(this, bundle);

It is highly recommended that you use a custom Application that are outlined in the Current Activity Plugin Documentation](https://github.com/jamesmontemagno/CurrentActivityPlugin/blob/master/README.md)

iOS

Your app is required to have keys in your Info.plist for NSCameraUsageDescription and NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription in order to access the device's camera and photo/video library. If you are using the Video capabilities of the library then you must also add NSMicrophoneUsageDescription. The string that you provide for each of these keys will be displayed to the user when they are prompted to provide permission to access these device features. You can read me here: https://blog.xamarin.com/new-ios-10-privacy-permission-settings/

Such as: NSCameraUsageDescription This app needs access to the camera to take photos. NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription This app needs access to photos. NSMicrophoneUsageDescription This app needs access to microphone. NSPhotoLibraryAddUsageDescription This app needs access to the photo gallery.
