I am trying to select multiple images for upload in my react native project using expo image picker which works. but I intend to allow a user select multiple images for upload at once but it only selects one picture from gallery. I have checked their official doc and I can't seem to find the use case.

This is how I call image picker.

 const pickImage = async () => {
  let result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
  mediaTypes: ['images'],
  allowsMultipleSelection: true, //tried this 
  allowsEditing: true,
  quality: 1,
  selectionLimit: 0, // and this too 
});

//console.log(result);

if (!result.cancelled) {
  setImage(result.uri);
}
};

this is the version of image picker installed

"expo-image-picker": "~16.0.6"
