Description

Here's the English translation of your query regarding the iOS app client:

The "Upload Photos and Videos" feature in the iOS app client currently only supports single selection, which is very inconvenient. Additionally, when the number of selected items exceeds 1000, the app crashes, and sometimes it crashes even with just a few hundred items. Could this be changed to support multiple selections? I suggest replacing UIImagePickerController with PHPickerViewController.

Key points:

Current issue: Single selection limitation and crash with large selections
Suggested solution: Implement multiple selection support
Technical recommendation: Migrate from UIImagePickerController to PHPickerViewController
