Gallery apps to replace Google Photos on Android
2025-12-02 · English · Article
In this list of six gallery apps to replace Google Photos, Piktures appears second and is recommended to readers who want more features and a more refined look. The article singles out its smart sharing, which sorts target apps by category and offers several picture and file sizes, and notes its many menus and ways to organise photos; it calls Piktures very versatile, though not quite at Google Photos' level. The interface is described as distinct from other galleries, relying on visual gestures and side panels, with filters for photos, videos or GIFs and sorting by location when pictures carry geodata. The calendar view is presented as one of its most useful tools, showing a full month with daily thumbnails so busy days stand out at a glance. It also mentions a QR code scanner and OCR that turns text in pictures into editable text, features it finds unusual in a gallery, and tools to compress pictures and choose their size before sending, saving data and space.
