iOS 8: Gallery closes when tapped

[MarkJ]

Hi,

I have an app where I use the native gallery function of the device to import photos. It worked fine until recently when I updated to AIR 16 and updated my devices to iOS 8. Now when I open the gallery on an iPad, it won't let me use it. It just cancels it no matter where I tap. I have tried the same app (with AIR 16) in iOS 7 and it works fine. Any suggestions?

I have filed a bug with number 3945964.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting the issue. Issue not reproducible with latest available Beta AIR SDK 17.

Could you please try updating to the latest available Beta AIR SDK 17 and let us know in case you are still facing this issue.

It seems to work in AIR SDK 17. Do you know an approximate date for when this will be released?
