Bug Description

I have several cameras in my phone and I have disabled main vendor one as it is full of trackig and attacked to Google Photos to be able to work.

However, now the taking photos don't work even if I have Open Camera installed.

App does not ask for an alternative camera such as other apps do.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Install another camera app
  2. Disable vendor main camera app
  3. Open FluffyChat
  4. Try to attach a file and choose to take a picture
  5. The action does not work

Expected Behavior

FluffyChat asks me to use alternative camera app for the action.

App Version

2.1.0

Additional Platform Information

Motorola Moto G15 with stock Android 15

Additional Context

Does not matter the camera app I install additionally.

This actually seems to be an Android upstream problem. I recently reported this very issue for Element X: https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-android/issues/4094
