If you are wanting a gallery app that is smooth as homemade vanilla ice cream and as fast as a Shelby Cobra, give this one a shot. Free @ the app market. You won't be disappointed!
It mops the floor with the stock Android gallery or any other gallery that I have tried.

I've been using Quickpic on my DX for some time now. It is my go to image app. Loads so much quicker than gallery. Good call!

Just do a search on the market for Quick Pic. You'll find it. The link you supplied takes me to a redirect back tomy isp's search page @ Roadrunner.com

I've been using this on my g tablet as well. The stock gallery just doesn't scan my images (tnt lite 314)
Awesome

Just found this today. Much faster than the stock gallery, and for some reason lately my stock gallery doesn't load all my images :/
I have one question though, can we install this and delete the stock gallery? Will that interfere with anything? Cuz I don't use the stock camera or gallery. Camera360 and QuickPic are what i'm using for my photos.
camera360 (found on Amazon, not Android market) and QuickPic are both nice finds,thanks!
Pretty darn quick. I like it! Thanks for posting.
Anyone knows if you can stream pics from your CIFS/NTFS shared folder on your home server?
I've been using Quick Pic on my phone for a while now. And it's just as great on the tablet.
Hi, can QuickPic totally replace the Gallery?
I don't understand how more people are not frustrated by the fact that picture can't be renamed after taking a shot..?
I would like to be able to rename the pictures as soon sa I take them, and from stock camera I can see the picture taken, but I can't rename it. Can QuickPic be accessed from camera (review of pic - right bottom corner)?
Thanks, Cheers,
Nenad

I do know that after installing QuickPic, I went into File Explorer and navigated to my DCIM folder where my pics are stored and clicked on a .jpg file, then the box popped up asking me which app I wanted to open the file in, Gallery or QuickPic. I set the check mark to "Always use this selection" and then tapped on QuickPic and made it the default .jpg viewer. You will need to do this for each graphics format type; .png, .tif, etc.
I do not know about the camera preview because I am running CM7 at the moment on my tablet. Anyone whom has used CM7 knows the downfall of the camera quality and I try to steer clear of even using the camera with this rom.
You can do as I have stated above, setting the file associations, and see what your camera app uses for the preview when you take a pic with your tablet. Then report back to us and let us know if this, in fact, does actually replace the default preview app for photos from the camera app.
[EDIT] I have just confirmed that if you install QuickPic, when you take a shot with your camera app and tap on the preview selection, it does give you the option of setting QuickPic as the default preview app from the camera.
Nope.
I made a QuickPic a default app to preview Jpegs (and other formats), but the problem is stil there:
From Camera app, when I hit a "image viewer" button, it opens a Galery-like 1 picture screen (on back, the Camera app is shown for taking more pictures).
Is there a way to tweak Android to use QuickPic instead (like "Registry" in Win?)
Cheers
Loving this app
Great app, I've been using it for a while. Was really happy when I found it, the stock Gallery appy is garbage compared to this app.
The pics and icons load right away, instead of sitting there waiting for no reason.

I was using Serendipity 6.3 and now Darky 10.1 rom, and I never got the option to choose - it always shows the preview in stock gallery... Can I remove the it (the stock gallery)?
BTW - I just left a "review" at "App Brain":
The best gallery app (IMHO)! Let me put out the facts others didn't: I just love the "rename" option - one can take a look at the picture, and directly rename it if you want (when the picture is in full screen. It would be nice though if one could do the same from a thumbnail preview - with a long press menu - the option lacks there...). One more minor issue makes me have another picture viewer installed: - if you open a hidden (.name) picture from a folder that has more then one hidden pics, it will show this one, but will not show any oteher by sliding, as would for non-hidden pics. It would be nice to have an option "show/ hidden files", and if the option is on, it would show all the hidden pics, and if it is off, it would show none. If this issue was not present, I would have had just QuickPic installed of all the pic viewers! Once again - thanks for the best gallery app - please make it even better!
Anyone having issues with date sorting? Looking at the details of each photo, the date is right but QuickPic seems to put them in a different order
Hello,
One picture in Zoe is uploading something like 20 pictures to Dropbox, is there any solution to fix this?

Trying to upload a single picture or a 3 second zoe or a 30 sec zoe video? A 3 second Zoe takes around 20 pics I think, maybe just use one of those pics to upload.

I've got auto sync and it's uploading 20 pics and a video.
Same here into Google +
Not found a way to solve this yet...
It's not a problem it's just how the zoe feature works. It takes 20 images together with the video which is how you are able to do all the cool zoe tricks. Because you have 20 new images on your phone they get automatically uploaded to Dropbox.
How else would you like it to work? Do you want dropbox to just randomly select a picture or only the first one when one of the others might be better?
I do get why people are a bit bothered because you end up with a lot of uploaded pictures but I can't see how else it can be done given how zoes work.

Zoe combined with the gallery and video highlights takes a bit of getting used to.
When browsing events in the gallery, they are automatically created based on an algorithm of when and where the pictures were taken. Each event is automatically labelled by date and if GPS is functional (outdoors) then the location too (see below how it's possible to split and merge events).
The most important thing to notice is that when browsing an event, the first page (showing a video highlight and 4 stills/Zoes) is a SUMMARY of the whole event. The stills/Zoes shown on this page are actually DUPLICATES from within the event itself, and if you scroll down you will see them repeated in the list on pages 2+. If you delete what look like duplicate stills/Zoes, they will disappear from both the summary and the list and are unrecoverable.
As mentioned in this thread, taking Zoes fills up the DCIM folder with many jpgs and mp4s (21 per shot - 20 stills and 1 video), and at first I was very concerned about how I would manage this flood of files. The first thing I did was to turn off Dropbox "auto upload from camera".
I have discovered the option to split and merge existing events in the gallery (by pressing and holding the event image in the list view). Selecting "Split to" allows individual pictures and Zoes to be moved from the \DCIM\100MEDIA folder to a new named folder under \Pictures. This allows specific shots to be isolated, although for Zoes all 21 files per shot are still moved.
When viewing a Zoe, it is possible to select a frame from the 20 available and save it as a separate still, and this will be added to the current event (the file is saved in the \DCIM\100MEDIA with the same file root as the original - e.g. IMAG0021_ZOE006.jpg would result in the saved file IMAG0021_ZOESHOT006_1.jpg).
When viewing an event in the Gallery, it's not easy to differentiate between Zoes and stills (whether taken with the camera or saved as a frame from a Zoe), unless you can see the Zoe moving.
It's not possible to manage the picture files or videos from the Gallery apart from using the Split and Merge functions. It would be an improvement if all Zoes were stored in a holding/temporary location, and specific stills or videos could then be selected for copying to a named event, which would not copy all the other files from each Zoe - leaving them in the temporary location.
Hi guys! I have made a improvement suggestion to HTC regarding Zoe please support it cause I have posted it on facebook of http://facebook.com/htcuk and http://facebook.com/HTC

I have not got my new one so this is based on my experience with Droid DNA. It seems to me that dropbox only instantly upload pictures in the folder DCIM. Therefore when I get my new one, I plan to create a folder, maybe called Zoe or Temp, outside of DCIM. After finish taking Zoe, I will manually move Zoe files into the Temp folder outside DCIM. I know this is still tedious, but I will try it before hTC comes up with a decent solution.

Oh! I have not read your reply before my previous posting. So, if dropbox will not upload pictures under the folder /picture, we can use split to move Zoe into /picture, preventing Zoe being uploaded to dropbox. Is that correct? Thanks!

I wish Screen-Shots (vol- and power for 2-seconds, both together, at the exact same time) were uploaded to DropBox/G+ and Zoe's were not!
I can't believe HTC even included DropBox on the phone... didn't they test and realize this would be a major problem.

you have to move every zoe to a new folder through the gallery. you cant do it through a computer. if you do then the zoe doesnt work properly anymore. it becomes 1 video and 20 separate pictures. also, if you delete one of those 20 pictures through a file browser the zoe disappears from the gallery.

Hopefully someone will make an app for that (or HTC will fix it). What are the steps to manually move the Zoe?
Hi everyone,
I juste realized that mess up Zoe/DropBox when unlocking bootloader... it erased all data (that i thought been saved on dropbox).
I could restore all parameters, apps, but no datas like .doc / .xls / .pdf.
Dropbox had saved every pics and vids, and would like to restore them in HTC One, but I discovered that Zoe shots were a ****ing mess !!
A way to restore manually what HTC Album do manage very well by itself (events / extracts from Zoe shots, pics and vids...) ?
You know what, I uploaded back all datas of Dropbox onto my HTC ONE and even if each Zoe shot is split to several pics, there is not a video resuming the shot in addition...
Please HTC, find us a way to recover these Zoe shots !

I always wished Dropbox would allow you to sync only pictures WITHOUT videos.
I've turned dropbox sync off now. It was a complete mess after recording a few Zoe Movies.

It should work if you restore all 20 pics plus the vid to the correct folders (is that correct, or is there also some data file I don't know about?)
1) We need to make the camera app store Zoe's in a different folder.
2) We need to make the gallery app play Zoe's from that new folder.
3) You need to be able to easily save any Zoe frame to a picture under the DCIM
EXTRA) I want the saved ScreenShots (Power, Vol-) under the DCIM folder too! Maybe just a dynamic link from /DCIM/Screenshots to /Screenshots?
And i realized something new, the Zoe shots are "renamed" in Dropbox, with a syntax identifying date and clock... No more Zoe label within file name...
One more difficulty to recover Zoe shots...

The way I work around this is I use an app call folder sync. The full version allows for name exceptions. So I have it exclude anything that contains the name zoe. Folder sync connects to drop box, Google drive, samba, etc.

Nice! Thanks for the tip.
EDIT: What are the limitations of the free version?

This is brilliant! I have been using dropsync and it can also set the exclude patterns. I can set it to upload Zoe video but not Zoe images. Fabulous!

Hi all,
What I did is, I took a zoe photo, and then I moved the zoe photo by the spliting function to /Picture folder.
Afterthat I use the ES explorer to move back those 20photos+1video files to 100MEDIA folder. And now, I cannot see the moving zoe in the photo album, and it just shows the 3 sec. video.
How can I restore it back? Thanks a lot for helping.

It is a little different. So click on the video and when it's playing click it again it will pause. You can then use the slider at the bottom to go through the frames. Once you find a frame you like you can go to menu and save the frame.

Thanks. However what I mean is now the album recongize it as a video clip instead of a zoe photo. So it cannot show it in a magic zoe style.
Anyway to solve it? Thanks.
You can't. Looked at the gallery sqlite database using sqlite editor. You can see there that Zoe photos are stored in there. Once a Zoe photo is removed the data get's deleted and when you return it back it doesn't recognize the zoe photo anymore because the deleted data in the database is totally gone.
I assume that the camera app creates that data in there everytime you take a photo and mediaserver removes it when it can't detect it anymore.

Thanks a lot. That means I've no way to resolve it back.
However, I think out a issue, for example, if we change to another New HTC one, we cannot just copy all files from the old phone to the new one with the zoe album keep alive in the new one.
Yes! Or maybe you can by backing up the data of the gallery and restore it back on a new device(Would require root though).
Also I have made this suggestion already on HTC about a month ago about the issues with Zoe, Gallery & dropbox but they ignored it. Seems like they didn't get enough response about the issue.
So one of the newer features of facebook it's the ability to save photos instead of screenshotting them. Useful for funny pictures etc.
The photos save in a folder named "facebook" inside the DCIM folder, except in the gallery app the photos are in the camera shots album.
It's not a big deal, but I get pretty ocd about how things are organised in my phone, and pictures I take mixed with facebook photos is a big no no.
Is there a way to change this so that appears in it's own album?
If it helps, I installed the vanilla 4.2 gallery (with the photsphere capabilities) app and the pictures saved in facebook are in desperate albums from my photos, but I prefer to use the default app.
Thanks for any help

Looking for the same solution on my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. There's currently no way to export your Motion Photos you've snapped as a MP4 or GIF. They're stuck inside the phone and only viewable in the default Gallery app. ?
I am having the same issue on my mate 10 pro. But if I share the moving picture to the Quik app and save it as a mp4. Then use a mp4 to gif convertor, it works. The only issue is Quik adds effects which I am unable to avoid
Hey guys!
I had the same issue with my Huawei P 9 Plus. And then I did like this:
1. Took my motion picture.
2. Opened it to have it close.
3. Made double click with my index and middle's knuckles to run screen shooting.
4. Then I opened GIF-MAKER-GIF Editor app, selected the screen recording and cutted it as I wanted to delete the "reccording frame" and finally I saved it.
5. At last, once you are intended to share it by whatsapp, it will apper a message so it will be sent as a gif but you should convert it into a gif or a video by whatsapp yourself, as it is not supported by whatsapp.
And then you have your motion pincture into a gif! Nice regards from Spain. "Alegría y buen humor!"
I think quik is the only solution... Because these moving jpg files cannot be played by any other program
Basically Huawei appends an MP4 padded at the end of a jpeg.
Had the same quest.. I've copied the jpeg over my PC and opened it up in 010 Editor and applied the JPEG template, which showed entire megabytes of 'unknownPadding'.
Scrolling through those I've seen the "moov" string and a quick search revealed it was an MP4 header.
To actually copy the MP4, you have to select 4 bytes before the "ftypmp42" string (click there, ctrl-shift-end). Now copy them and paste them in a new HEX file.
Apply the 010 Editor Mp4 template now. Notice there is an unknow header at the end. Delete that.
Save and enjoy your Mp4.
It would be great if some hacker could automate this in an app where you share the jpg file to and it extracts the mp4 from it.
Btw, converting to GIF turned a 10MB mp4 into a 22MB Gif, so it is not recommended without re-cropping/resizing.
Get Moments 2 MP4 app from play store. Tested and it works to convert the moving jpgs on my y9 prime to MP4 clips.
