HTML File Upload Doesn't Show Gallery on Android

Question

I\'d like my PHP app to accept a photo chosen from a mobile user\'s gallery. I\'m testing on Android 4.4.4 using Chrome. This is my form:

Answer 1

Try to use <input name="userfile" type="file" accept="image/*" />

instead of <input name="userfile" type="file" accept="images/*" />.

It works for me.

Answer 2

Turns out this is a known bug in Android >= 4.4. My code works as expected in iOS.
