PhotoPicker.kt

// update your activity version 
 implementation 'androidx.activity:activity-ktx:1.7.1'


val pickMedia = registerForActivityResult(ActivityResultContracts.PickVisualMedia()) { uri ->
        // Callback is invoked after the user selects a media item or closes the
        // photo picker.
        if (uri != null) {
           // do what you want with pic
        } else {
            Log.d("PhotoPicker", "No media selected")
        }
    }
 
 private fun pickImageFromGallery() {
        pickMedia.launch(PickVisualMediaRequest(ActivityResultContracts.PickVisualMedia.ImageOnly))
    }

 
 // to support all version put this in your Manifest file 
  <service
            android:name=".data.notification.Controller"
            android:exported="false">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
            </intent-filter>
        </service>

Is Photo picker is only worked android 13 and above.

    <service android:name="com.google.android.gms.metadata.ModuleDependencies"
        android:enabled="false"
        android:exported="false"
        tools:ignore="MissingClass">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.google.android.gms.metadata.MODULE_DEPENDENCIES" />
        </intent-filter>
        <meta-data android:name="photopicker_activity:0:required" android:value="" />
    </service>
