type: [DocumentPicker.types.images],
allowMultiSelection: false,

Hello and thanks for reporting,

I am facing same issue, I think there is no option selecting the image from direct phone gallery.

Hello and thanks for asking,
I believe that you want to use image picker https://github.com/react-native-image-picker/react-native-image-picker - not this library.

Thank you 🙂
