I'm having issue with picture uploader not showing option to let user select image. Will compensate your time and effort

I would like to add a image uploader but i keep having issue with picture uploader not showing the options to select image. i’ve tried multiple ways to make it appear but it just wont work? I’ll compensate your time and effort. Let me know. Thank you. Please help me to check.

If using bubble image uploader element, should be straightforward and put element on page, then user clicks element which options device storage to select an image.

Are you using the mobile or web editor?

Hi! I can help you debug it.

If the Picture Uploader isn’t opening the image picker, it’s usually caused by one of these issues:

  • The uploader is inside a Group that’s not clickable or is covered by another element.

  • A floating group or transparent element is blocking clicks.

  • The uploader is disabled or hidden based on a condition.

  • Browser/device-specific restrictions (especially on mobile).

  • A custom workflow or plugin interfering with the uploader.

I’ve dealt with similar Bubble.io issues before, including image uploaders, file upload workflows, API integrations, and mobile-related quirks.

If you can share your app (or invite me as a collaborator), I’ll identify the root cause, explain what’s happening, and get it working. It should only take a short time to diagnose.

Happy to help, feel free to send me a DM.

I also had problems with the Picture Uploader, in that time we (my team and I) solved that issue making a reusable element with the using the File Uploader and the picture uploader, in that case the user would be able to drag an image to the picture uploader and click to upload a file using the file uploader, then we have a workflow that put the image uploaded in a custom state in that reusable element.
I know that is a little confuse, but doing that with a reusable element let’s you use it’s in any page easily using our own reusable element with a picture uploader that will work on any scenario.

But what @tobixzybolumole said is valid, maybe you just have a object blocking PU click.
You can DM me if you want some help with this.
