Gallery: Smart Photo Manager

Gallery is a photo and video management app by Google LLC that organizes, edits, and stores media files on Android devices. It is designed to help users locate images quickly through automatic categorization, apply one-tap enhancements, and manage folders, including support for SD cards. The app targets users who want a lightweight, offline-capable gallery that does not consume excessive storage or memory.

The app performs nightly automatic organization, grouping photos into categories such as People, Selfies, Nature, Animals, Documents, Videos, and Movies. This grouping is intended to reduce manual scrolling and make it easier to find specific images. It is important to note that face grouping, which powers the People category, is not currently available in all countries, as indicated in the app's description.

Gallery includes a built-in photo editor with an auto-enhance tool that adjusts images with a single tap. Users can also create custom folders to arrange photos according to their preferences and can view, copy, and transfer files to and from SD cards. The app is optimized to work offline, allowing full management of media without consuming mobile data.

The app is free, contains no ads, and does not offer in-app purchases. It requires Android 8.0 or higher and has a content rating of Everyone. With over one billion installs and a rating of 4.24 based on more than 646,000 ratings, it is a widely used gallery solution. The latest version, 1.9.4.930218541 release, was updated on 2026-06-24.
