Chooser

File chooser plugin for Cordova.

The following must be added to config.xml to prevent crashing when selecting large files on Android:

<platform name="android">

<edit-config

file="app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml"

mode="merge"

target="/manifest/application">

<application android:largeHeap="true" />

</edit-config>

</platform>
