Hi there.
This feature was originally requested in this topic. Due to the limitation of the library, the feature couldn't be implemented.
However, in this commit, the library supports picking multiple images/videos at once. Can Joplin use the newer library then support attaching multiple files at once? That would be very convenient.

I think we just need to use the newer version of react-native-image-picker, from v2.3.4 to v4.x.x. Then make some changes to adapt to the new API, which returns an array of the selected media rather than a single one.
I guess the attachFile() function in joplin/packages/app-mobile/components/screens/Note.tsx needs to be changed? I have no experience of Typescript, so I hope someone can implement this.
I made a Pull Request for it.

@roman_r_m Hi. I saw your suggestion in the PR. Do we need to implement the bulk attachment in this PR?
I'd say it more of a nice to have feature rather than a blocker.
I think we can merge it first, then I (or someone else) will implement the bulk attachment in the future.
Anyway, thanks for your advice!
