From the documentation for the camera plugin, it says that it is only supported for CameraSource.Camera.

allowEditing	boolean	Whether to allow the user to crop or make small edits (platform specific). On iOS 14+ it's only supported for CameraSource.Camera, but not for CameraSource.Photos.		1.0.0

This issue needs more information before it can be addressed.
In particular, the reporter needs to provide a minimal sample app that demonstrates the issue.

For iOS, it seems that this plugin only provides the capability to crop images taken with the camera and does not offer other forms of image editing like Markup. Hence closing this issue.
