**Describe the bug:**  
I’m developing an app allowing user to capture photos when they reach a goal.  
I’m using the Image Picker component by enabling both Camera and Photo roll.  
The field where the photo is store belongs to a Table in synch with Airtable.  
The issue is: When I try to take a picture with my Iphone IOS 17.1.2 it frequently fails (look at the attachment) and restarts the app.  
On the other hand, when I upload a picture from my Photo roll,

 ![Capture d?ecran . 2023 -12-17 à 10.05.52](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/a/ca4e6b4899a2b6d0c516ebe54828f344374833e3.jpeg)  
it always work.

**Expected behavior:**  
Captured Photos should be always successfully stored.

**How to replicate:**  
Use the Image Picker component, storing the photo into a field belonging to a Table is in synch with Airtable.  
Take picture with IOS 17.1.2

For the sake of share. The above issue has been solved (thanks to @ThinhDinh ) by purging the browser cache in the smartphone.  
Pay attention when you capture several images by means of your app, such leaks may happen.
