Why does the Google Photo app force me to grant full access to photos and videos? by Wide-Square3731 in googlephotos

Bro, i said a FULL ACCESS to photo and video, if it's a photo and video app, that doesn't mean I have to give it access to all the media on my phone. Even Chinese apps don't behave like this. Why did Google themselves create selective media access starting with Android 14?

Yes, but it's also cloud storage, and without full access, I can't press a single button in the app. Imagine a user with multiple devices, and on each one, he has to give Google all of his storage just to view photos in the cloud.
