Price: Free / In-app purchases ($1.49 – $4.49 per item)

1Gallery is a popular gallery app available on the Google Play Store. The app works like any standard gallery app. You can view your photos by date or in grid form. It also functions as a gallery vault, allowing you to secure photos and videos with a pin, pattern, or fingerprint lock. The hidden files are also encrypted for your privacy. Other useful features include a simple photo and video editor function. The app is available in a light or dark theme. Plus, it’s cheap and decent, and it is expected to improve with time.

A+ Gallery

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($0.99 – $19.99 per item)

A+ Gallery is a simple gallery app. You can do the usual things, like manage your photos, create photo albums, and share your photos. Along with that, it has support for Dropbox, Amazon Cloud, and Facebook. That means you can view those photos as well. Additionally, it comes with a vault feature where you can keep private images. The design is solid, and it’s not difficult to use. It combines Material Design and iOS styles into a single look. You can download it for free, with an optional pro version available as an in-app purchase. It’s not bad as far as gallery apps go.

Aves Gallery

Price: Free

Aves Gallery is one of the better options for gallery apps on Android. It’s free and open-source, and it checks all the right boxes. The app handles a bunch of different file formats, including rarer ones like TIFFs, SVGs, and more. There is also support for video files. The UI is minimal and clean, although whether it’s good or not is subject to personal taste. The features work without issue. You may rarely encounter a glitch, but overall, it’s a good app.

F-Stop Gallery

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($0.99 – $12.99 per item)

F-Stop Media Gallery is one of the older gallery apps. This one features a flatter, cleaner design accentuated by material design, with a few really decent features. You can search your photos based on their metadata, which is kind of awesome, and you can add tags to your photos for easier organization. It also reads metadata (including EXIF, XMP, and IPTC info), and there is a Smart Albums feature that helps you sort your stuff on its own. Best of all, it plays GIFs! This is easily one of the most flashy gallery apps for those who like their stuff loud. Some of the features require the pro version, but the free version is still very functional.

Gallery

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($3.99 – $5.99 per item)

Gallery by Photo Gallery Tools, is a famous app available on the Play Store. This one lets you effortlessly manage and view your photo and video collection. It has a sleek and modern interface and comes packed with features that offer quick search functionality, detailed photo and video insights, and seamless sharing options. It has good management tools, allowing you to rename, delete, copy, and move your files with ease. You can enjoy customization with personalized wallpaper settings, intuitive gesture controls, dynamic photo slideshows, and the comfort of a dark mode interface.

Gallery Vault

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($0.99 – $48.99 per item)

Gallery Vault does almost exactly what its name says it does. It creates a private vault for your photos to keep them away from prying eyes. With it, you can hide photos, videos, and any other type of file that this app supports. You can also hide the icon so no one knows how to access it, but you get alerts if someone breaks in, and it supports some fingerprint-enabled devices (Samsung devices only for now). It’s a good option in terms of gallery apps if you want some privacy, and you can try out the free version before you buy it.

Google Photos

Price: Free

As with most lists, here is the mandatory Google option. The Google Photos app is a cloud storage app where you can upload as many photos and videos as you want. The only downside is that the images and videos will be compressed in this app. The app can also see your device folders to view any stuff you haven’t uploaded. Unfortunately, Google ended the free part of it starting in June 2021, so this isn’t quite the easy recommendation it used to be, but it’s still a good gallery app.

PhotoMap Gallery

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($1.34 – $3.49 per item)

PhotoMap is one of the more unique gallery apps. It lets you take pictures and save them by location. You can then use a map to view your photos based on where you took them. For instance, you’d have to navigate to the beach to see the pictures you took near the beach. It’s one of the cleaner GPS-based gallery apps that we could find. It’s also just fun to play with. You can download it for free or pay for the pro version. There are even AR features to play with.

Scene

Price: Free / In-app purchases ($2.99 per item)

Scene is a gallery app that also does other things. It’s fairly simple as a gallery app. It shows every image in your library with some basic separation by date. You can create galleries as needed or scroll through them. The app also has a calendar view, which we thought was pretty unique. There are some minor features, like putting your photos in a video slideshow, that some people may like. The premium version is a subscription. It adds an unlimited sync option, drag-and-drop organizing, and some other small things that you can honestly live without depending on your needs. It’s not bad.

Simple Gallery App Pro

Price: $2.99

Simple Gallery Pro is, well, a simple gallery app. The app is fully offline with no unnecessary permissions. In addition, you get an image and video search, support for 32 languages, a favorite function for quick access, a recycle bin to recover lost photos, and plenty of ways to filter your massive collection. There is also a security feature with a fingerprint unlock for added privacy. There was a free version of the app. However, only the premium version gets updates now. That’s not a big deal because the app is only $2.99. Plus, it’s open-source, and it supports most types of photos and videos. The developer has some bugs they’re working out, but otherwise, it’s pretty solid.
