It would be very useful feature. When you are planning to implement it?
If I can wait with launching of my project or I must looking for an other solution.

[jamesmontemagno]

I am not currently planning on implementing this as it isn't supported natively out of the box. However I will leave it around for legacy.

How to achieve this activity? Anyone could you please explain ?

[dkarzon]

Just putting it out there, if anyone who has +1'd this issue wants to take a look at my open PR (#355) and comment on the direction and if the implementation for iOS and Android works for them that would be great.

@haxor211
some galleries support picking multiple files and some dont.
For example, Samsung gallery does not support picking multiple files but Google Photos supports picking multiple files.

[amirvenus]

I am getting this exception:

(Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: cgImage

[jamesmontemagno]

Was just fixed in latest beta, closing as this is implemented.

I think it's relevant: http://coder-jeff.blogspot.com/2016/05/how-to-pick-multiple-files-from.html I'm gonna switch to some other plugin to deal with this issue.

Has anybody got it working on Android? I use PickPhotosAsync, but the when I select photo in gallery, it immediately picks it(not selects it). I use latest pre-release version.

Yes it does work. However on some devices, in my case is a Galaxy Edge, the default Photo Picker by the OEM does not support multiple pick. We have to ask our users to set Google Photo as default app when dealing with this problem and everything works fine.
