Is there any code involved?

camera.requestPermissions()
  .then(() => {
    const options: CameraOptions = {
      width: this.imageSize,
      height: this.imageSize,
      cameraFacing: 'front',
      allowsEditing: true,
      keepAspectRatio: true
    };
    camera.takePicture(options)
      .then((imageAsset) => {
        this.saveImageToBackend(imageAsset);
      })
      .catch((error) => {
        console.error('Could not take picture: ' + error);
      });
  }, () => {
    console.log('Not authorized to access camera on device.');
  });

After hours of testing all the different models above with a number of different CameraOptions, it seems like the one I didn't test was the one most obvious to test: saveToGallery: false

    const options: CameraOptions = {
      width: this.imageSize,
      height: this.imageSize,
      cameraFacing: 'front',
      allowsEditing: true,
      keepAspectRatio: true,
      saveToGallery: false // <-- this did the trick
    };

This seems to solve the issue on both the S10 and the P30 Pro.. So I have a workaround as I don't need to save it to the gallery, but someone else might need this functionality.
