I've a demo app in which I'm using Xamarin.Mobile to allow user to pick image.
I copy image picked by user in App's local folder & return copied image's path.
This path is used to display image in ListView.
When the user selects image from SD card, after picking just 2-3 images, app crashes. Visual Studio's Output window shows Clamp target GC Heap......, OutOfMemoryError etc errors.
When the user selects image from internal storage, app works fine. Also app works fine on iOS & Win 10.
What should I do so that app doesn't crash.
Following are some details of o/p window:
