Answer 1

Start activity to choose your image with this intent

Intent intent = new Intent();
intent.setType("image/*");

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE, true);

intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Select Picture"), UploadingHelper.REQUEST_CODE);

then select any number of images you want and then in your activity result

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT && intent.getClipData() != null) {
            int numberOfImages = intent.getClipData().getItemCount();
for (int i = 0; i < numberOfImages; i++) {
try {
      ImageData imageData = new ImageData();
      imageData.uri = intent.getClipData().getItemAt(i).getUri();

      Bitmap bitmap = getBitmap(intent.getClipData().getItemAt(i).getUri());
     imageData.icon = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, getPixelsFromDP(widthOfImages), getPixelsFromDP(widthOfImages), false);

      images.add(imageData);
      } catch (Exception e) {
              Logger.log(e);
           }
      }

}

This is the Image Data class used.

public class ImageData {
        public Bitmap icon;
        public Uri uri;
}

Sorry I forgot add the method

private int getPixelsFromDP(float dp) {
        return (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, dp,  Resources.getSystem().getDisplayMetrics());
    }
