Add the requestImageForAsset function of the UIImage component to allow your plugin to access the jpg version of heic images. HEIC is really making developers cry.

Yes. This will make this plugin usable for most non ios developers. I have no idea what to make of photos:// urls. Image editor plugin that I use don't accept photos:// url. Can't display Gifs with this. Could you consider this as a priority and add the same.

I made a workaround for my personal app that I made. Takes the image asset and converts into a JPEG regardless of the original file format. I'll make a PR sometime this weekend to help out you guys.
