Add rename option for albums and pictures

Self-explanatory.

Thanks in advance.

Long folder names on NestedRecyclerView

Perhaps wrap or shorten(w/ ellipses) long folder names. See screenshot below:

Folder name on app bar

When viewing a folder, it would be more informative to display the current folder name on the app bar instead of just "Camera Roll".

Crash when launching the app

Flies right after launch.

Inability to zoom on first view

Hey there!
I've noticed a very small issue; upon first viewing or swiping to an image, if I try and double-tap or pinch-out to zoom into the photo, I can't zoom. However, if I swipe to another photo, then swipe back to the initial one, double-tapping/pinching-out works and allows me to zoom!

Pick picture layout does not match the one I set on settings

Writing on a removable Storage device (SD card, USB stick)

App need to request permission to be able to write (delete, move and/or copy) to a removable Storage device.

Wrong Cover Image

Wrong Cover image is displayed. In screenshot you can see the latest image is not displayed as the cover image.

Inconsistent ellipses on folder names

I noticed that even short folder names such as "Screenshots" are at times getting shortened and at other times not. See pic below for reference:

Camera FAB click not working

Only the animation is shown.
Using a Moto G5 Plus.

Sort by date option (taken date)

Sometimes resuming app does not work properly

After resuming app, if in picture detailed view, the picture is gone, so only black background is visible. One cannot swipe to other picture, and pressing back button/arrow makes the app crash.

RAW Support

Hey there, I was wondering if you'd consider adding support for viewing RAW images taken with apps like Manual Camera. Thanks!!

Exclude Folders [Bug]

Device: OnePlus 3
Android Version: 7.1.1
App Version: 1.3 Beta (15)

If you exclude a folder, there is no way of including it in the app unless you wipe the app's memory (not cache) completely. There should probably be a way of including folders, or maybe excluded folders should be able to be viewed if the Hidden Folders option is enabled.

Black UI for Amoled screens

Hi,
Could you create another UI variant for a full black theme #ff000000?
Thank you.

Add option to delete entire album.

It is something I use often on other gallery apps, it'd be good if you include an option to delete the entire folder or album.

Remove certain options from picture view overflow menu

Some options are already at the bottom: info, share, edit, delete.

I think these options should be removed from the overflow menu, and maybe add some others like: rotate, flip and rename.

Thanks in advance.

Please add Password/Pin/Fingerprint protection to hidden folders

Deleted files coming back automatically

I have deleted few images. After some time I open the Gallery and click refresh button. Then the deleted file came back.

Include / Exclude Folders option

So that I can manually add/remove/view excluded folders.

MKV format video is not showing in Gallery

Reduce albums view cards margins

Currently, cards margin is (if I'm not wrong) 16dp and that's looks a bit too big, so please reduce it to just 8dp.

And also, please add an option to make those cards squared. I know I just requested a squared grid for albums view, but that's a flat view, and this one has cards, and some people might like it.

Thanks again.

[enhancement] Sort album/folder screen by most recent additions

Hey there, just wanted to say that this app is incredible - hands down the prettiest gallery app on Android! I was wondering if you'd consider implementing a new sort option so that albums/folders that have most recently had a photo added to them appear at the top of the list (similar to how Google Photos alters its album quick-list). Basically sorting by most recent additions so albums that haven't had anything added to them for a long time also end up appearing on the bottom.

I know you get a tonne of feature requests so completely fair if you don't want to add it, but it'd be an awesome feature to have.

Thank you! 😄

Move about from overflow menu to settings

I'm sure you want to let people know important info about the app, but I don't think it's a primary action so, I think it can be moved to settings.

Thanks in advance.

The Future of Camera Roll?

Hey Lukas,

Do you plan to keep Camera Roll open-source? How is the development process going (read: update times, plan for support, new features)?

I think your app has really great potential, and it definitely is one of the best looking Material Design gallery apps on Android. I'll be featuring it on my Android App Guide soon.

Keep up the great work!

Option to Delete Folder

Currently we cant delete folder.

Image/Video informations showing as unknown

I'm attaching two screenshots , one is from quickpic gallery and other is from camera roll .
Quickpic shows the date and other info's about the image but camera roll is not showing any details.

Option to Hide folders using .nomedia

Extended Folder Capabilities [Feature]

The app should have the ability to make and delete folders, as well as being able to select images from a folder and being able to move them folder to folder. When inside a folder, being able to sort images by different criteria would be a good feature.

Other gallery apps like Simple Gallery has these features, so take a look there if you need some ideas for code.

Inconsistent Zoom on Album Cover

There is an inconsistent Zoom level on Album Cover. On startup it is over zoom. Some time it shows the correct zoom level.
Image 1 is over Zoomed
Image 2 is correct zoom

Excluded Folder shows when Media Retriever is Enabled

I have enabled media retriever option because some of my folders and images are not properly showing. But when I enable that option it shows excluded folders . See screenshot

Sorting option does not work on hidden folders

Publish APK on Github?

Any chance we can see the .apk here at Github, so it can be obtained without access to Playstore? For an easy approach to that, just in case, I might refer to Creating Releases in the GitHub Help (basically: just create a tag, push it to Github, attach the .apk file to it and optionally a description for the release – done).

Thanks in advance!

Rotate image by orientation sensor

Make Video Icon on the thumbnails more visible

The video icon on the thumbnails is not visible on some videos because it of transparency.

What about changing it to like this

Move refresh and sort options to toolbar

Having refresh and sort options in toolbar, makes them easier and faster to access.

Those are the most used options, I think, and reducing taps (even if it's just one) is a UX improvement.

I'm also sure that toolbar has enough space for them, since it only has the overflow menu.

Thanks in advance.

Video Playback [Bug]

Device: OnePlus 3
Android Version: 7.1.1
App Version: 1.3 Beta (15)

The video playback is really buggy. When I tap a video from a folder or swipe to it from a picture, the app takes a lot longer to open than a picture. The video controls are also really bare (there is only play and pause). Rotating the orientation of the device is not seamless, the video goes black for a second, then shifts and is paused. After the video is finished playing, if I hit play again, nothing happens; I expect to replay the video on click.

I recommend using a different video playback engine or the device's native video playback engine.

Edit Image option

Auto-refresh on app open

It is quite annoying to have to either hit the refresh button everytime you take a new picture, or restart the app (which I never do). Could you please make it so that the app refreshes every time it is opened, even if I open it from the recent apps menu?

When wanting to attach pictures app does not appear as an option.

When trying to pick pictures to send via Messenger Lite, the app just doesn't show to pick the picture from it.

Other apps where the gallery does not appear as an option:

1. Trying to pick an icon from gallery to set a custom icon for an app in Nova Launcher.
2. File manager (when an app opens the default internal file manager). (Happened only when opened from Twitter or Google Keep or Todoist).

Please look into it. Thanks

Add an option to show a FAB in albums view to open camera

I find the app's design really simple and minimalist. I love it.

But I also think it would be good to have a FAB to open camera directly from gallery. Maybe as an option in settings.

Thanks in advance.

Add a style for albums view that is exactly the same as the inner albums view

What I mean is that this:

Has a style option so it can look like this:

Thanks in advance

Use right primary dark colors

Right now, the app uses the same color for toolbar and status bar, and that makes it look a bit iOS-ish and that annoys me a bit.

Can you please use the right primary dark colors for both themes?
Light: #e0e0e0

Btw, for dark theme, can you please fix both primary and primary dark colors?
Primary Dark: #000000
Primary: #212121

PS: If you're using a transparent status bar, please add a black 20% opacity overlay, or #33000000. Height: Android 6+: 24dp Android 5 and below: 25dp.

Thanks in advance :)

Add visual indicator that an album is pinned

Perhaps a pin icon at the upper right or far right(if on NestedRecyclerView)

F-Droid

I'm standing here thinking, it's probably the most beautiful gallery I've ever seen and it's a shame I can't update it regularly since I don't use Play Store (or anything Google for that matter). So, would you please consider publishing it on F-Droid, too?

More information about a selected file

Hi,
After selecting a file, could you add an option to get more information? (e.g patch, size, dimensions,...)
Thank you.

Maximum brightness when viewing images

It will be great if there is an option

Select All option

Hi,
It seems we have to select files one by one.
An option to select them all would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Swiping from image to video is lagging

My DCIM folder contains fix of images and videos . When I swipe from image to a video there is a stuck or lag .
Images to images swipe has no problem.
Images to video and video images has this problem.

Metadata Editor [Feature]

The app should have a metadata editor or at least a rename image feature.
