Piktures is an alternative to QuickPic for your Android photos
2017 · English · Article
In a July 2017 news piece, Android Community's Ida Torres suggests Piktures to people still looking for a gallery after many QuickPic users left the app when Cheetah Mobile bought it. They present Piktures as one of the better alternatives and stresses that it is free and has no ads. The article notes that the developer describes it as the first gesture-based gallery, and that every photo on the device shows up as soon as the app is installed. Torres explains three ways to browse: albums that match the phone's folders, a location view based on GPS tags, and a calendar view that places thumbnails on their dates. For sharing, they highlight resizing a photo and removing its geotag before sending it through a messaging app or social network. The writer also mentions gesture controls that make browsing and sorting easier, built-in video and GIF players, several viewing and sorting options, and PIN protection for chosen photos or folders. Torres ends by contrasting its ad-free model with what they suspect QuickPic became under its new owner.
