Introduction

Hi, we're Awkward. We created a customizable image picker for our iOS reddit client called Beam. UIImagePickerController only supports selecting 1 image at a time, but we needed more images in Beam. Tatsi has built in support for selecting multiple images. On top of that, we integrated a camera button directly into the picker. We welcome you to use Tatsi for your own projects.

Features

  • Multi selection of photos/videos using the photos library
  • Ability to reverse the display order of images/videos
  • Option to show a camera button inside the picker
  • Assigning a max limit for the number of photos and videos
  • Choosing the first view the user sees
  • Ability to display the picker in a single view, merging the album view with the assets collection
  • Accessibility (voice-over and switch control) is supported
  • Easily Localizable
  • Support for smart albums, user created albums and iCloud shared albums
  • Support for dark mode by default
  • Customization using the TatsiColors protocol
