## What it is
A lightweight Android file picker library written in Java that lets apps pick images, videos, audio, and arbitrary files via startActivityForResult. It supports camera capture, max-selection limits, suffix filtering, and folder browsing.

## Use cases
- pick images from gallery in an android app
- select multiple videos with camera option
- choose audio files or record audio
- pick documents like pdf or docx by suffix
- browse and select files from folders on android

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, easy-to-integrate picker for images, video, audio, and documents on Android
- you want camera capture and multi-select built into the picker flow

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained library with recent updates and modern AndroidX photo picker support
- your project is Kotlin-first and you prefer a Kotlin-native picker

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: file-upload, ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, files
- platform: jvm
- tags: file-picker, android-library, media-picker, image-picker, video-picker, audio-picker, android
