Went from great app to bad app in a single update! Ignoring the recent crashes, they have changed some functionally that sucks. The new way the set as function only allows me to get a very small fraction of the image on the wallpaper. Plus, you can't specify home screen or lock screen. Now it changes both no matter what. The old way was great. Also, when trying to move pictures from one folder to another, some folders will not show up. Can't move pics now to certain folders. Very sad.

Update: Got a new phone and had to setup a new secret drive on it in Piktures. The app wants me to verify by email. I receive the email, but the link in it just errors with 'site not found'. Time to drop Piktures all together. My biggest issue is it has seemed to get worse and worse at updating recent photos. Used to be you'd open the All album and they'd pop in after about 10 seconds. Now, it's minutes, if at all. Sort of defeats the purpose of using it as the main photo app.

It works very well for what it's supposed to do, most of the time at least. Recently, I encountered an issue with recovering photos from the secure box after having done a factory reset. I made a backup and stored it elsewhere, but when these images are then imported again, I can't move them. It seems it has also caused some odd functionality whenever I use external video players for these exported photos.

Been using this app for a good while after QuickPic. It was simple, clean, and fast. I wasn't even bothered by the small amount of ads that were added. Recently, though, the app has felt sluggish as it takes good amount of time for the galleries to load. Another issue is the app fails to recognize photos and folders that have been deleted. This was my favorite gallery and I hope all of the issues will be ironed out. As of now, I will be uninstalling.

I have used piktures for awhile and I really like it, but over the last month, suddenly if any picture is saved in a secure folder, it leaves a blacked out copy of the image in the regular folders that sometimes can be viewed if you tap on it, and it can't be deleted unless the copy in the secure folder is deleted. Otherwise it's a great app.

The latest update seems to have slowed down the rate you can swipe between pictures in full screen view. Perhaps this won't affect most people...or maybe even the vast majority...but it really bums me out. I tend to use both thumbs one after another to swipe through photos very quickly when I'm struggling to find a picture just by scrolling through thumbnails. Now I can only go about half as fast. I'm sorry for the 3 star rating and I regret that I never rated this app prior when it was perfect

I like the overall look of the app. Decent replacement for the default Gallery app. It's a bit confusing to navigate at times. The biggest detriment is that I can't seem to move my secured photos over to an unsecured folder. The process just gets stuck on "Please wait..." indefinitely. Uploading to Dropbox just gives me a JPG that shoots out an error when opened. How xan I back up my photos that are in the secured "secret" album?

Too bad I paid for this garbage. Offline gallery works somewhat OK, though usage is a little bit complicated. Online, however, it's a total failure! Connects to webdav and shows all the folders. But doesn't load a single picture and eventually crashes completely. Only a force close and restart of the app brings it back to life. Tried my nextcloud as well. Outcome was even worse. This time I get message: no files in this folder! $5 wasted. Deleted!

I'm just obsessed with this app. It's probably my top 5 best and most used apps. It's so functional and esthetically pleasing. There's only one grip I have. You can't access video info just like you can with images. Matter of fact, there aren't any options for videos in general outside of the share and move features. No video edit option, nothing,.It's odd. I reached out to the developer but no response. For that my rating is 4 β's

I love this app :) BUT, it's been having problems since the android 11 update. After doing some digging, I found android 11 changed the permission set of Files and Media access to just Media access. This is preventing the app from moving, editing or deleting pictures. It's also preventing access to the secret drive as it requires Full Disk access (which is no longer an option to provide in android 11) Pls update the app to request Full Disk access so we can use all features again pls :)

This used to be my go-to app. The controls are very intuitive, and navigating through albums is a breeze. However, the use of the secret box now shows ads. Fine, I paid for the full version. But the full version didn't fix the crippling bug that has plagued this app since around the time the ads were introduced: corrupted files/thumbnails. It took a complete factory reset to clear the corrupted pictures, but reloading pictures from my backups only corrupted more pictures. It's really a shame.

Used to be nearly perfect, years ago. Recent updates have changed a lot of the navigation and moving images between folders is now clunky, forcing you to go a couple screens deep and then leaving you with both an advertisement and a 'upgrade to premium' button in a spot that's easy to mistake for how to leave the unnecessary confirmation after your files have been moved. I'm in the market for something new, now. Developers ought to seek funding by merit of quality, not by user hostile design.

Update: the recycle bin is nice but there doesn't seem to be any way to delete everything in it unless I select each picture one at a time. With hundreds of pictures this is extremely cumbersome. When I try to play a video I recorded it doesn't offer piktures as a way to play it. At first I couldn't delete photos but now I can somehow.

One of the best gallery apps I have used. Very clean look and super easy to navigate. I love that it allows you to bookmark albums to the top, and also allows you to choose any of your photo editing apps as default. One of the only gallery apps that actually has every feature that I want. I personally have not had any of the issues that I have read about in the reviews, at least as of yet. Maybe the app was patched?

The latest update did break an important function. However the response from the dev was prompt, professional and assured me they were working on fixing it. That being said, this is by far the best photo album that I've tried on Android by a lot and I've tried quite a few. Plenty of options for backing up photos and a unique and user-friendly UI. Definitely looking forward to future updates.

It's a decent app to play around with. The UI & UX are fine, app is responsive, etc. However, I would NOT recommend using this app simply because it does not capture location/GPS metadata -- a bizarre omission in this day & age. I scrolled back to see where I gad taken various pics but was shocked to see the metadata lists everything you'd want to see except for location info.

Beautiful simple interface, but one annoying issue prevents me from continuing to use it. The hidden folders are practically useless, you cannot select pictures from the hidden folders if you're trying to select it for another app, like for contact photos. It requires leaving the app you are in, going into Piktures to unhide the folder, going back to the other app and selecting it, then going back to Piktures and hiding the folder again.

The last update moved everything around, I can't sort my folders alphabetical, you have to open a parent folder to have picture folders shown, folders that used to show up before the last update, I have no idea where they went or how to get them back. Horrible, horrible update. I bought this when it was good, now I'm looking for an alternative.

[QUALITY REVIEW, 230224]: This app was my favorite app for a long time! (1) When exporting secret files, it needs to be 1 big file if encrypted. (2) There needs to be a feature to export files to Internal Hard drive as in-encrypted basic photos before ever placed into "Piktures". (3) Entire Albums need to be importable and exportable and moveable. [PIK BACKUP] Almost thought I lost my photos but Backup saved me for the first time!!

OH MY GOODNESS. Where have you been?! I only found out about this app thanks to someone on Reddit recommending the app after frustrating experience with Samsung's stock gallery that is as dumb as bucket of rocks. I downloaded this app, used it for a few minutes and it was so good, I bought the full version. It's smooth, remembers the frequently used cloud sharing drive, no annoying repeated delete confirmation popup, etc. THIS is how you make an app!!! ππ It's saving me so much time!
