How did you get an empty list from the start with the Pixel emulator?

This is what I've got:

Go to the settings change there to deny - and change to limited again.

Can you take a complete screen recording starting from installing the example? I can't follow your steps on my emulator.

Woah, something happened at 0:50, it just jumps right in without animations? Did you make any edits? 🤔

No, I load the app and press on common picker button.

I can see the same behavior by following your screen recording. Thanks!

The debug log tells that the limited permission is granted without asking.

From the first look this might be a bug with Android 14 permissions.

[AlexV525]

Debugged around the permission delegate, in this case, READ_MEDIA_VISUAL_USER_SELECTED did return as granted from the application context, so there is a little bug with the permission in the Android. However, I've managed to find a workaround for the picker to get rid of permissions in this case.
