Research direction
Start by locating the Android implementation of nativescript-camera-plus and the handling of the saveToGallery option. Reproduce the reported behavior with takePicture({ saveToGallery: true }) and compare it with the working iOS path. Done means Android photos are saved to the gallery as they are on iOS.
