Hello everyone !!
Today I updated my app, enabling the "saveToPhotoAlbum" parameter.
After that, Apple rejected it displaying the message bellow:
"2.1.0 Performance: App Completeness
This is an automated message. The review of this submission cannot proceed. See below for more information.
The app crashed on launch. Apps that crash negatively impact users.
Test the app on supported devices to identify and resolve crashes and stability issues before resubmitting for review"
I have these permissions into config.xml
And into info.plist
Before using this parameter, I never had any rejections.
Has anyone else experienced this ?
Thanks !!

Research direction
Start by reproducing the iOS launch crash with saveToPhotoAlbum enabled, comparing the config.xml and info.plist permissions shown in the report. Trace the camera plugin's photo-album path and verify the app launches successfully on a supported device before resubmission.
