On an Apple Silicon M1 it is not possible to select the UIImagePicker controller to select an image. In the photo gallery, when you click on the image, the interface does nothing and does not react anything.To exit the interface you must click on the cancel button, but unfortunately it doesn't work also.It's working fine in real device device or intel processor mac simulator with same code and same iOS version.
Currently I am testing on below configuration

System OS: macOS Bigsur(11.2.2)
chip: Apple M1
iOS Simulator: iPhone11(iOS 14.4)
xCode:12.0.4


I get exception like below when i try to select image
Code Block 
<NSXPCConnection: 0x60000016a080> connection on anonymousListener or serviceListener from pid 17615: Warning: Exception caught during invocation of selector didSelectMediaWithInfoDictionary:, dropping incoming message and invalidating the connection.
Exception: * -[NSURL URLByAppendingPathExtension:]: component, components, or pathExtension cannot be nil.

I'm having the same issue on M1 processor mac. This is really a pretty basic function that should work.

Because many functions of UIImagePickerViewController will removed in future release(new version iOS14). You should using PHPickerViewController

I believe this is fixed with latest version of Xcode and the simulator now running on iOS 15.0
