I am also facing same issue. I am trying to use FlutterImagePicker.
App works fine till navigating to gallery.
But when I click on image to select it, nothing happens.
Same code works perfectly fine on windows machine.
I guess it works fine on Intel mac's.

Yeah, seems like an issue with the M1 Macs. In my Intel machine, doesn't happen. Both devices are running Xcode 12.4

Hello Apple- Please wakeup.

I was expecting this issue gets resolved in macOS Big Sur V 11.3.
But, it's a BIG disappointment. No fix for this issue.....
Wakeup Apple .....

Apple doesn't respond.

Where are you expecting Apple to respond? Here on DevForums? Or via one of our formal support channels?

Share and Enjoy

  • this isn't a fix - we don't have arm64 in excluded settings (only i386) - the issue is very much still present on m1 systems with big sur, xcode 12.5.1 + ios 14.5

  • @Psorkin @eskimo Can I remove it from only library "image_picker" in the following code ? iamnot sure if I can access library name thru config. ?

    post_install do |installer| installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target| flutter_additional_ios_build_settings(target) end installer.pods_project.build_configurations.each do |config| config.build_settings["EXCLUDED_ARCHS[sdk=iphonesimulator*]"] = "arm64" end end

Yes this seems to be very likely a problem with the M1. A simple and effective workaround is to install iOS 13.7 simulator, if your project supports iOS 13. On this simulator the Image picker works, also a different issue (copy/paste) works on this simulator on Apple M1 silicon. The issue appears on iOS 14 and higher. See a good discussion here

  • I am having an issue regarding this when running our XCTest cases, where it will show an all white screen instead of the images for the image picker. It only happens when running our automation tests on an M1 and not Intel. We are using XCode 13.2.1.
