invisible app used photos and videos

Onlyfun

'Used by 1 app' under photos and videos in privacy dashboard, but no apps listed in the photos and videos.
Has anybody seen this? I wondering if it's a trace of something malicious.

It's the gallery..

Click on "Manage Permission" at the bottom and you will see..

NetRunner88 thank you for suggestion, it actually turned out to be the messaging app.
now wondering, why it was not reflected in the photos and videos privacy dashboard section. and why and how messaging app used photos and videos? while I have never launched it. then who did?

And because it is a system app
It is when you add an attachment I believe..

NetRunner88 add an attachement to what?
are you saying that adding an attachement somewhere outside the messaging app would cause this behavior?

i mean I am positive that prior to this happening, I have never opened the messaging app since the initial device setup. that is what caused my concern.

if you are aware of any circumstances when an app by itself accesses user's media files please let me know.
