React-native-document-picker: I'm not seeing the options for Google Drive or Dropbox, when running ios simulator I get taken right to iCloud document selection.

[AdamMoffitt]

I'm not seeing the options for Google Drive or Dropbox, when running ios simulator I get taken right to iCloud document selection. Any ideas why that would be?

Code:
try {
const results = await DocumentPicker.pickMultiple({
type: [DocumentPicker.types.pdf],
});
for (const res of results) {
console.log(
res.uri,
res.type, // mime type
res.name,
res.size
);
}
} catch (err) {
if (DocumentPicker.isCancel(err)) {
// User cancelled the picker, exit any dialogs or menus and move on
} else {
throw err;
}
}

+1. Happening on physical device as well (made sure i had the google drive app installed, but still only the iCloud files window came up).

Figured it out. What you have to do is:

1. Make sure you have google drive downloaded on the phone (not sure if you could download apps on simulator)
2. Run the example code, then click on browse in the tab bar menu in the bottom when the i cloud drive window opens
3. You should see either Google Drive appear right away or you might have a location that says "More locations". If this is the case, click on more locations and google drive should be there. From there, simply enable google drive and you should be able to use files from google drive!

Hope this helps!
