When selecting photos and clicking OK .. I am getting crash

    override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
        when (requestCode) {
            FilePickerConst.REQUEST_CODE_PHOTO -> {
                if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK && data != null) {
                    val photoPaths = ArrayList<String>()
                    photoPaths.addAll(data.getStringArrayListExtra(FilePickerConst.KEY_SELECTED_MEDIA))
                    Timber.d("photo ${photoPaths.size} ${photoPaths[0] }") // CRASH HERE
                    validateFileSize(photoPaths)
                }
            }

@RageshAntony you are trying to store uri in string type list, to get rid of this change your list type to Uri.

[MoustafaElsaghier]
