Description

With the block editor enabled when the user goes to create a new post, selecting ‘Image’ then ‘Choose from Free Photo Library’ and makes any search, the user is able to select multiple images, however when they add these to the post only the first one is added. On iOS this adds all images as expected.

👋 @marecar3 , you worked last on the Pexels integration, please have a look to try to enable this. FWIW, the image block already supports multiple images when selected from the WP Media library so.
