I'm using expo-image-picker.
I want to use images taken from the camera when only camera permission is granted and gallery permission is denied. I don't need the image to be saved in the phone's gallery. Right now I'm getting this error User rejected permissions, when I call ImagePicker function launchCameraAsync, like this:

ImagePicker.launchCameraAsync({
 mediaTypes: ImagePicker.MediaTypeOptions.Images,
 allowsEditing: !isIOS,
 quality: 0.2,
 aspect: [2, 3],
})

If you don't need the image to be saved in the phone's gallery, then what you will do with the taken photo? – Kamal Hossain May 25 '22 at 02:59
@KamalHossain directly read it from the `Image URI` (which we get when the image is taken from a camera) and upload it to the server – Israr Khan May 25 '22 at 18:34
did you checked [expo camera](https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/camera/) instead of **ImagePicker** – Kamal Hossain May 26 '22 at 00:51
No, I haven't. Will take a look. thanks – Israr Khan May 26 '22 at 10:10
