+### iOS 10 issues
+
+Starting from iOS 10, Apple started asking for specifying the reason for accessing the user’s photo library, therefore it's mandatory to add `NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription` entry in the info.plist.
+
+[`NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription`](https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/General/Reference/InfoPlistKeyReference/Articles/CocoaKeys.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40009251-SW17) describes the reason that the app accesses the user’s photo library. When the system prompts the user to allow access, this string is displayed as part of the dialog box. In order to add this entry you must pass the variable `PHOTO_LIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION` on plugin install.
+
+Example:
+ 
+cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-image-picker --variable PHOTO_LIBRARY_USAGE_DESCRIPTION="your message"`
+
+Empty string will be added as value if you dont pass the variable
