Gallery shows blank spaces

[Davide153]

Hi,
I'm having an issue with imagePicker for quite a while now.

I have a function that opens the device's camera to take a picture. Every time I go out of that function without taking any photo, a reference is saved as a blank image in the imagePicker gallery.
I tried deleting the app's cache or the temp directory but nothing...the blank spaces go away only if I restart/turn off the phone.

This is my function to take photos using media-capture plugin:

  takePhoto() {
    this.mediaCapture.captureImage().then(
      (data: MediaFile[]) => {
        if (data.length > 0) {
          this.moveFileToLocalDir(data[0].fullPath);
        }
      },
      (err: CaptureError) => {
        console.error(err)
      }
    );
  }

And this is the imagePicker function to choose multiple images from gallery:

  selectPhoto() {
    const options: ImagePickerOptions = {
      maximumImagesCount: 5
    };
    this.imagePicker.getPictures(options).then(
      results => {
        for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
          this.moveFileToLocalDir(results[i]);
        }
      },
      (err: CaptureError) => console.error(err)
    );
  }

After inspecting what happens I saw that the takePhoto() function enters the device's Pictures folder and then leaves right after without selecting anything.

I searched for something to update the app's gallery or ways to delete the reference but couldn't find anything.

What would you recommend me to do?

Thanks!
