   You could use `cordova-plugin-camera`'s `window.navigator.camera.getPicture` to trigger the right options on android. This method will let you choose your destination using https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera#cameradestinationtype--enum.
   
   Technically add an onClick listener to your <input> tag and handle it yourself by using the above API method, that should resolve your issue. 
   
   I guess `type="file"` is more generic and hence they handle it by showing a system file picker.
