NOTE: There seems to be a bug with the new photo picker if you have selected to limit access to the photo library! Selected images may not get added to your post in this case. Trying to figure out a workaround.

Made another quick release of v17.3 to fix this issue! Not granting full access to the photo library should now work as well, although it will not work quite as well.

The main noticeable limitation is that if Toot! does not have photo library access, then photos will not be pre-selected if you go to change your selection of attached photos. You have to delete them from the posting screen and then re-select them to make changes. This seems to be an Apple limitation that can't be worked around.

@tootapp I think I prefer having this limitation rather than it asking me to add photos with the old dialog all the time 🥳

@tootapp I think it’s fine. I can’t think of a time I’ve ever had to change the photos selected to post. It wouldn’t even occur to me that it would preselect my existing photos in any app. I would have deleted the ones I no longer wanted by that point anyway 😎
