Cyanogen Gallery Review
Cyanogen Inc. develops applications that aim to improve your experience on Android, especially with the camera and photo gallery. This app is another example of its work, and it equips your device with a new image management tool.
Cyanogen Gallery features a side panel from which you can manage all your images. It offers options for organizing media files other than the default date by time intervals of days or weeks, as well as other categories such as "Moments".
The tool has built-in support for photos from Flickr, Picasa and Facebook, which means it's able to automatically sort your albums and other contents based on metadata. In addition, it lets you manage all your local photos and videos, as well as those from other cloud storage services.
You can also use the tool to edit your pictures, with a wide variety of editing options such as cropping, color adjustment and brightness, filters and more. In general, this is a very smooth gallery application that can handle large volumes of photos and videos without any lag or glitches.
Although Cyanogen Gallery is a native CyanogenMod app, developer Brad Ling has ported it to work on devices running any Android version with an ARMv7 processor. The result is a fast, powerful gallery that's easy to use and should be a worthy replacement for the standard Google Photos app. Note that this is a beta version, so it's normal for the app to have some bugs.
