Gallery : Basics of the Photo Gallery on an Android Phone
Your In-Depth Guide to Gallery App By App Box
With the advent of advanced smartphones that come with a camera of up to 108 megapixels, it is needless to say standard cameras are becoming obsolete. Every person who owns a smartphone now has the luxury to capture memorable moments of their life and look back at them whenever they please. Gallery apps give us the same joy turning the leaves of a tangible photo album gave in the long-forgotten decades of the '90s and early 2000s.
A highly functional photos gallery app can become your go-to for revising your old memories and sharing the most happening moments of your life with others. However, if you find using the app hard, you can end up being frustrated and wasting your precious time.
That’s why we created an intrusive gallery app for android that runs seamlessly on android mobile devices and has multiple options to make your life easy.
Below we will cover all the functionalities of our application in detail, so you never feel stuck while you use Gallery.
Get Started: To use our application, you will have to download it on your mobile device. You can either go to Playstore(add link) or our official website. By clicking on download in front of our gallery app icon, within a few seconds the app will be ready for your use.
Taking a Picture: Many of you take multiple shots to choose the best picture at the end. During such an instance, you want to move back and forth between the gallery and camera. We have made it easy to do so with a camera icon on the top right. By clicking on the camera icon you can switch back to the camera and continue taking pictures.
Retrieving Photos: Whether it is mother’s day or your cousin’s birthday, greeting a loved one with a picture that reminds them of their glorious moments can lead to the most meaningful conversions. We don’t want you to spend any longer than a few seconds scouring for that particular picture you are keen on sharing with the world. So, our app comes with the search bar on the top. By typing in the file name you can have instant access to it.
Looking for Media from other Applications
Another way to look for a picture is to access the album where it gets stored. For example, if you need a photo you downloaded in the past, you should look in the album called download or something similar. Images sourced from different applications generally are allocated to an album having a name that matches their name.
Restoring Deleted Photos
For getting back images and videos you deleted, go to the recycle bin. It might be hidden if not visible on the top. Three options will be visible to you.
The first one looks like a dumpster and will remove the entire album on being selected. Unless you have made up your mind to get rid of an album, leave this option.
When you tap on the info icon next to the delete option, the entire information of the album is displayed, including name. Path, size. Etc.
Renaming Folders
If you feel the default naming of a folder lacks clarity, you can rename it by holding it for a short while.
You will see Rename listed as the second option from the top. After selecting it, you can remove the previous name and add one of your choice and save it by choosing okay.
Editing Photos: Not every picture you take is perfect for posting. To show the best side of yours, you might want to spruce your photos a bit. With the photo editor in our app, you are free to change the size of images. They can be rotated, cropped, and added filters to satisfy your preferences. Further, with the free-from tool selected, you can doddle over the image or even scribble text you like.
Viewing Photos and Videos: Our app makes finding imperfections in your images a quick task, as you can enlarge an image to a phenomenal extent. For a better experience, the application offers you the option to increase / decrease the number of columns visible on the screen at a time. Both the videos and the photos can be viewed in full-screen mode.
Do you want your videos to autoplay? Or to continue playing where you had left them the last? In the settings, enabling the options visible under the video segment will make all this possible.
You can also go by your entire album without the need of sliding the images by turning on the slideshow option.
Photo Sharing: A photo can serve as proof of a challenging
tasks you accomplish, such as trekking on a hilly region or doing a thing you are scared of the most. After you have undergone an incredible experience, it is time to shine.
When you want to share a photo, whether on one of your social media accounts or on whatsapp, you can easily do it with the share button at the bottom right. Looking like an open triangle, it allows you to share an image on any of the pre-installed apps on your phone.
Customise Your Display: We give you the powder you change the look of the app under the screen setting option. You can adjust the brightness of your screen as per your preference. With the ‘customise colour’ option in settings, the colour of the background, theme, text and more can be changed.
Restoring and Deleting Media: You don’t need an additional app to restore your deleted media. All the files that you delete will be transferred to a folder called recycle bin in our application. Reviving your deleted media takes the wink of an eye, when you use Gallery. Tap on the restore file option and your deleted files will appear again in their precedent folders.
Importing Files: Whether you want to add images that are residing on your Google drive or import a folder you just downloaded, all you have to do is access settings. Towards the end, in the setting segment, you will find the import option.
Enhanced Privacy: Some secrets are better not to be shared, like the day you bunked your classes to visit a museum or watched a much-awaited movie. Our app lets your mobile become your safe keeper as you can hide any of the images you don’t want other people to view. Even when a family member demands your phone, you never have to worry about unseen consequences.
Alternatively, you can lock a folder with a password of your own choice for better protection. However, keep in mind that this will stop a person accessing your mobile from viewing those pictures only in our app. So, we strongly recommend uninstalling other android gallery apps if you are totally dependent on our internal gallery app lock.
Filtering Media: As your phone overflows with media, you might forget where to search for an image you need at the moment. By selecting the filter media option in our app, you can view the files by their type, saving your time and mental energy. Just uncheck the boxes to exclude the media you don’t need presently.
Conclusion: In today’s fast-paced world, being organised is essential for a peaceful existence. Taking photos and posting them over the internet has become an inseparable part of everyone’s life. A photo gallery app for iphone that provides you quick access to any of your images with minimal steps involved comes in handy all the time. We have created one such application called Gallery. It is completely free for you to use and offers maximum ease with options to edit, save and view images in the way you find fit.
