Ratings and reviews

So far I like the app, and love the password protected secret vault. I just have some notes. 1. To move a photo/group OUT of the locked vault, I don't like having to mak a separate folder to move them out. 2. Can you add a "Select All" feature for when I want to select a big group of photos? 3. I would like to be able to write/draw on photos and other editing features. 4. The "Crop" feature is wacky. It MOVES the picture, not crop it. Please fix that. (Google gallery does that better.)

I've switched to this app since ditching Google Photos. I like the look and there are some nice features like solid options to sort and organize. However there are a lot of rough edges like this app not seeming to play nice with my camera app (pressing the thumbnail of latest photo taken shows a previous photo) and the contacts app (refuses to let me set a photo as someone's contact picture). On top of that, lots of video formats won't play and some even freeze the app.

Sleek and responsive. Very easy to create albums and move photos. Unfortunately, there are so many little annoyances that add up. Lack of sorting options, grey "images" that remain in albums when photos are moved, lack of gif files support. 3.49$ isn't a terrible price for premium, but the features feel rushed for what you are paying. Nonetheless, I enjoy it more over my stock OnePlus 7 Pro's gallery app. Maybe wait a little longer for it to be more fleshed out and well rounded.
