Upcoming android deadline.
There is upcoming android deadline regarding READ_MEDIA_IMAGES permission. As per new google You can only use READ_MEDIA_PERMISSION permission if your app is a gallery app, or if its core functionality is editing, managing, and maintaining photos. Otherwise, you must migrate to the Android photo picker, or a photo picker of your choice.
Now apps that are using this for picking up profile pictures or other non-core features won't be able to use READ_MEDIA_IMAGES permission after the deadline.
