I fixed it by changing moveItemAtURL to copyItemAtURL at line 459 on ImagePickerManager.m

We encountered an issue on iOS 13 and ended up discovering the same fix that @zirkc recommended. For us, changing copyItemAtURL to moveItemAtURL on that line resolves the issue. The tradeoff is that the original file is not being removed from its source location, which appears to be in a /tmp directory. I assume this /tmp directory will be periodically emptied though.

We are using patch-package to commit this change locally in our own project repo. This could/should probably be a PR here.

Should be fixed with v2.2.1.

Closing for now, if the issue persists, then we can reopen.

Thanks for the contributions and the patience!
