# Feature Request
MIME-type filter for selecting from PHOTO ALBUM
## Motivation Behind Feature
<!-- Why should this feature be implemented? What problem does it solve? -->
Give the plugin the ability to select only certain MIME types of images. For
example, this could help limit the options down to .jpeg and .png only on
Android. Thus, it could prevent the users from picking .psd files from their
library.
## Feature Description
<!--
Describe your feature request in detail
Please provide any code examples or screenshots of what this feature would
look like
Are there any drawbacks? Will this break anything for existing users?
-->
As a developer using this plugin I would like to have a configurable option
to filter certain MIME types that I want only. Something that can be done via
the `cameraOptions` like:
```
navigator.camera.getPicture(onBrowsePhotoSuccess, onBrowsePhotoFailed, {
sourceType: pictureSource.PHOTOLIBRARY,
mimeTypes: ["jpeg", "png",...] // only works when sourceType is not
CAMERA.
});
```
## Alternatives or Workarounds
<!--
Describe alternatives or workarounds you are currently using
Are there ways to do this with existing functionality?
-->
Our current workaround is relying on the returned file URI from the success
callback and use regex to determine if the file type is valid or not.
