The pick Promise is not resolving to an array of objects, instead it resolves an object alone.

Bug report

Summary

As per the docs it says The pick Promise resolves to an array of objects but while testing it its resolving only to an object.

Reproducible sample code

    const fileData = await DocumentPicker.pick({
      // Allowing only expected files

      type: [DocumentPicker.types.allFiles],
    });

    console.log(
      '🚀 ~ file: resume.js ~ line 83 ~ onUpload ~ pickedFile',
      pickedFile,
    );
    /* pickedFile {"fileCopyUri": "content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/document%3A26849", "name": "VAMSI RESUME.pdf", "size": 128365, "type": "application/pdf", "uri": "content://com.android.providers.media.documents/document/document%3A26849"}*/

Hello and thanks for reporting,
the problem is that you're using version 5, the docs are for latest version - v8.
Thank you 🙂
