Ionic 5 Image Picker crashes in iOS Simulator

I try to simply integrate the image picker in my Tab Page. I have a ion-button which calls the Method chooseImage() on a click.

The Problem ist, that when I start the app in the iOS Simulator, it starts normal, but when I click on the chooseImage Button it crashes in that moment. The Image Picker does not open, it crashes before, directly at the click on the button.... I don't know why. Maybe someone could help me please!

This is the Method:

chooseImage() {
  this.options = {
    width: 220,
    quality: 32,
    outputType: 1,
    maximumImagesCount: 5
  };

  this.imageObj = [];
  this.imagePicker.getPictures(this.options).then((res) => {
    for (var i = 0; i < res.length; i++) {
      this.imageObj.push('data:image/jpeg;base64,' + res[i]);
    }
  }, (error) => {
    alert(error);
  });
}

Probably you miss NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription in your Info.plist. You should add this:

<key>NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription</key>
<string>Some description</string>

Where and how add these lines?

This will be helpful if you use cordova: Add entry to iOS .plist file via Cordova config.xml

If you use capacitor check documentation.
