Description

Since Android 11 (API level 30, R), the MediaStore.MediaColumns.IS_FAVORITE column was introduced to the platform . This provides a standardized way to read and write the "favorite" status of a media item.

Why

Currently, the isFavorite property of the AssetEntity class exists but has a significant limitation on Android, as noted in its API documentation: "Android does not have this field, so it is always false" . However, with the official system API now available, it should be possible to properly implement this feature on compatible Android devices.
