PhoneGap camera is not working on ios 10

I have a button that onclick class the function getImage(); and it crashes when I call it on my iphone 7 plus that has ios 10. Can someone please tell me why this is happening and give me the right code for to stop this. Here is the code I have as of now that used to work and stil works on older ios and android.

navigator.camera.getPicture function crashes on ios 10 device.

    function getImage() {
        // Retrieve image file location from specified source
        navigator.camera.getPicture(uploadPhoto, 
            function(message) {
                alert('get picture failed');
            }, {
                quality: 80, 
                destinationType: navigator.camera.DestinationType.FILE_URI,
                sourceType: navigator.camera.PictureSourceType.PHOTOLIBRARY,
                correctOrientation : true,
                allowEdit: true
                }
        );

    }

    function uploadPhoto(imageURI) {



        //function sendPhoto(filetype){

            var options = new FileUploadOptions();
            options.fileKey="file";
            //get file name
            options.fileName=imageURI.substr(imageURI.lastIndexOf('/')+1);

            //Check if the device is android or not and if it is use the folowing code
            var devicePlatform = device.platform;


            if(devicePlatform == "Android"){                    
                //check file extension
                options.fileName=imageURI.substr(imageURI.lastIndexOf('/')+1)+".jpeg";






            }   



            var params = new Object();

            params.value1 =  "Babatunde";
            params.value2 = "param";

            options.params = params;
            options.chunkedMode = false;

            var ft = new FileTransfer();
            ft.upload(imageURI, "uploadUserPhoto.php", win, fail, options);

        //Part of the commment out function sendPhoto
        //}
   }

    function win(r) {
        console.log("Code = " + r.responseCode);
        console.log("Response = " + r.response);
        console.log("Sent = " + r.bytesSent);
        alert(r.response);
    }

    function fail(error) {
        alert("An error has occurred: Code = " + error.code);
    }

Reason why app crashes on iOS10 and not on versions earlier is because you need to add permissions for Camera and Album. You need to add permissions to your info.plist

Photo :

Key       :  Privacy - Photo Library Usage Description    
Value   :  $(PRODUCT_NAME) photo use

Camera :

Key       :  Privacy - Camera Usage Description   
Value   :  $(PRODUCT_NAME) camera use

For list of keys you need to specify in your info.plist is in this Apple's documentation

You have to add this permission in Info.plist for iOS 10

Camera :

Key : Privacy - Camera Usage Description
Value : $(PRODUCT_NAME) camera use

Photo :

Key : Privacy - Photo Library Usage Description
Value : $(PRODUCT_NAME) photo use
