About this app

ImgurViewer is a little image viewer to open image links from external applications in the fastest way possible.
As the name suggest it was originally designed to open Imgur image links, but the application evolved to support some other images services too, the current image services supported are:

Imgur: with full support ( galleries, albums, gif videos, simple image links ). Gif links will be opened as videos to save bandwidth and faster loading.

Gyazo: full image support.

Gfycat: full Gfycat videos. As Imgur, it will load videos instead of gifs when possible.

i.reddituploads.com support.

streamable.com support.

twitch clips support.

Instagram image, video, and simple profile image gallery support.

vid.me support.

flickr support.

GIPHY support.

Also ImgurViewer can open any link with a path with and image extension, so, it will try to handle any image link.

ImgurViewer as a standalone application doesn't do anything, so don't expect anything when opening the application. It must be used in conjunction with some other external application as a web browser, reddit is fun, newsblur. It's was done for my personal usage ( the developer ) and uploaded to the play store to share it with the world. I hope that someone find it useful too.

This application is open source and the source code can be found over: https://github.com/SpartanJ/imgurviewer

Ratings and reviews

Works great. Does what it says on the Tin and then some. Only minor gripe is I can't modify the "supported links". This is more of an Android limitation than anything else, but I'd love to be able to blacklist some domains so they don't open in this automatically. My only other option is to have android ask me every time I open something, which wouldn't be a great user experience.

Great app! It's been really handy as a companion to my usual Reddit app. One of my only complaints is that images with transparency don't show up well or at all if they're dark. It'd be great if there was a lighter or checkerboard background underneath the image.

So as far as I can see, you can't view any images if you're being blocked due to region issues. If you can't see the content because of this, copying and pasting the same link to the app won't bypass this issue. You're better off using a vpn if you get region blocked.
