Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Android App Launcher widget can't save full size images when using IMAGE_CAPTURE, this is because we need to specify the output location where this image is going to be stored, that location can be different depending of the android version and phone brand. This might require branding apps to include a write permission in their manifest. See more details in Save the full-size photo and IMAGE_CAPTURE intent.

Because the output isn't defined, then Android returns a low quality image (thumbnail)

Describe alternatives you've considered
One option would be to default the output whenever the Android App Launcher's action is IMAGE_CAPTURE.
