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.

    I’ve seen this pop-up before on my android phone. I think it’s something to do with your app (i’m not sure from your screenshot whether that’s a browser or a client app like Sync) not having permission to access your media files. You might be able to give that app media/file permissions in your phone’s settings and that will stop happening.
