One UI 6.0 and Android version 14. Whenever I go to upload a photo this weird sub menu pops up instead of taking me directly to my gallery or my files. What is this, and how do I disable it?

Edit: Thanks for all the replies everyone! Appears to be a native android photo picker and it cannot be disabled as far as I’ve seen and been made aware from this thread.

    It looks like the behaviour Apple recently added, you can give an app limited access to your files. So instead of just getting the file upload prompt, you get a system prompt first, that asks which files you want the app to be able to see.

    The solution is probably to give that app full access to your files/photos
