Unable to start camera from image chooser

[moneytoo]

Description

As Fulguris declares CAMERA permission in manifest, it's treated as denied, so launching Camera from intent chooser doesn't work.

Environment

• Device: Nexus 5X
• OS: Android 8.1.0
• Version: 1.8.7

To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Go to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/file
2. Click on 'Choose file' button
3. Select 'Camera'
4. See error

Expected behaviour

The app should request Camera permission.

Interesting, I did use the camera before though using WebRTC to make video calls.

It works when user grants camera in permission settings. The app should ask for permission in not granted case

Thanks for reporting that. It should indeed be asking for permission, weird that it does not in your use case. It seems fairly easy to reproduce too with your instructions, sounds like an easy fix.
