Google Pho tos has become one of the most used applications in Europe for various reasons. The main thing is that It comes pre-installed on almost every Android phone sold in this market
One of the exceptions is Samsung, which has a very powerful app in Gallery, especially now that it incorporates new artificial intelligence functions. It’s not the only one to offer an alternative app to Google Photos, but it’s one of the few. Brands like Motorola, for example, do without it.
Therefore, when a person buys a mobile phone from one of these brands, choose to use Google Photos even though it might not be what you’d like since it’s the one that comes pre-installed. Yes, you can download many other similar apps, but not everyone has the desire or patience to do so.
Google Gallery
What many don’t know is that Google itself has an app designed to be used as a gallerybecause that’s what it is, but it h as nothing to do with Google Photos. It’s called Gallery, and it’s free
That’s why it works perfectly on any current Android mobile, and It has an extremely simple and straightforward interface, with few functions, but it effectively serves its purpose of being a photo gallery. In addition, one of its virtues is that it does not need an Internet connection, in case that would be an advantage.
This application has a simple interface, which is based on the image folders on the device it is installed on. For example, camera photos, screenshots, WhatsApp images, Telegram images, etc. But if you want you can create your own albums to organize the photographs.
It’s as simple as going to the Folders section at the bottom of the interface and clicking the three-dot icon in the upper right corner. There you can create a new folder and place the desired images there. Of course, it must be taken into account that, since it does not use the Internet connection, does not make backup copies in the cloud.
Furthermore, includes a basic photo editor, this allows you to crop them, put a filter, etc. This is a very simple tool, which cannot compete not only with professional applications, but even with Google Photos. Of course, at least in video editing, this allows them to be cropped, which is very useful. The Gallery app can be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store.
