After latest update webp pics/gifs are not working anymore. Pls fix it
[Android Apps and Games] Neez333:
Mod, are you able to update this with 64bit libs so us pixel 7 using folk can use this? Loved it up til now. I'm honestly thinking about returning/selling my pixel 7 for a one plus 10 just for the use of this app again otherwise.
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
Pretty sure that WSTxda has said that it's not possible - The QuickPic gallery that he is modding is pretty old so there's not much he can do about it.
[Android Apps and Games] Neez333:
Oh okay I kinda half figured as much. I know it's not the most simple of tasks... Crap, decision time. There's absolutely zero gallery apps worth a damn these days
[Android Apps and Games] OraOne:
Hello, this app is my favourite app but i am not alone with this :)

Problem: I bought a new smartphone Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Plus PRO.

Miui-Version Global: 13.0.5

Android Version: 12

Quickpic version: 0.0.11 - last updated on Play Store at 23.01.2022

Quickpic works very well but I can not rename the Files on the SD Card.

I am trying to add the privilege but it want to have the privileg on the top folder which is not possible.

I see you talk about version 9.0 and so on... but why I can not see it in my Play Store?

How can I get the latest version of Quickpic Gallery on my phone?

What is the solution that I can rename my files on my SD Card?

Thanks, David

Application in the store and the application in the forum are two different programs.
[Android Apps and Games] shaggyskunk:
You DEFINITELY DO NOT want the version from the Play Store!

QuickPic Mod is from @WSTxda.

I wouldn't use the Play Store version EVER!

Cheetah Mobile does NOT have a good reputation.. AT ALL!
[Android Apps and Games] OraOne:
Hello, thank You all for your replies. Of Course i want to use the best version of quick-pick which works well.

I know that the Cheeta Mobile has bought the Quick-Pick App and they are not on the top of development.

But till now I could not do anything.

How could I have installed the App from WSTxda ?

I would like to have it very much.

Thanks

There's download links in this XDA Thread - Go to the OP (original post / First post) and you'll see links to download QuickPic Mod.
[Android Apps and Games] jalanbesi:
First of all, thnak you to WSTxda and this great forum for bridging the limitless possibilities for android tweaking. I've been using this app since before Cheetah took over and then move on to other app until "WSTxda" ressurected it from dead, and been using it ever since. However, since android 13 update on my device, Samsung Tab S7 plus, I can't seems to exclude any folder from memory card in the setting, anybody have this problem? Thank you in advanced.

This is the best galley app I've used for years, would really be great if gifs were tagged like this to differentiate them from still images. Would love to see this feature in an update.
[Android Apps and Games] OraOne:
Yes, my wish would be, that the Movies (mp4, avi, etc.) would not have only one thumbnail and thats all in the Galery-list. But Quickpic would take 5-6 random pictures from the movie and would generate a gif or something and if I scroll in my Movie-Collection which contains more than 5000 movies, in this case i can see much more about that file which movie it is. Because there are Thumbnails which shows nothing... It is very annoying.. Maybe an other solution could be if I could take the picture in the movie which will be used as thumbnail.

Could you realize this? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
There is a thumbnail creator app on the play store which does this. Android media scanner uses whatever thumbnail is embedded in the file, if there is not one it uses whatever generic icon is associated with that file.
[Android Apps and Games] OraOne:
Hello Thebear, yes thank you, but of course the best solution would be if there were taken 5-6 pictures from the video and displayed as a moving gif in the Gallery list...

Creating manually the thumbnails over 5000 Videos are too hart..

Could you realize this what i would see? I think it would be really good not only for me but general. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
The issue is, Quickpic or any gallery app has absolutely nothing to do with those thumbnails. It can't create them or anything. They must be created and stored in the metadata and then media scanner (your device's metadata reader)finds it and tells other apps to use the thumbnail. If there isn't 1, it doesn't create it it uses a general icon to show the file association. You can download an app or go on a computer and create thumbnails yourself. Unfortunately there is no other way to do thism

Might of missed something, cant seem to install the latest build on the December update on pixel 7. (rooted)

used to install on bother versions before.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Can't install on pixel 7. App is 32 bit device is 64 bit
[Android Apps and Games] japzone:
For some reason I have images that aren't showing up in Moments. They're visible in Albums perfectly fine, but don't show up in Moments. What's extra weird is that often they'll appear in the thumbnail for ex: February 2023, but then I open that date just to find the picture to not be in there.

Pictures saved from Twitter for example.

[Android Apps and Games] acuicultor:
You can always decompile the app and add whatever you want instead of complaining about other's free work.
[Android Apps and Games] dante.24:
Android 12 has legacy support for 32-bit applications, dunno why complaining, i use modded version 3yrs already on Galaxy S10
[Android Apps and Games] smashingtool:
That's pretty irrelevant to Android 13 on the Pixel 7. There is no legacy 32bit support on these, I cannot install the APK whatsoever.
[Android Apps and Games] mugendon:
Is there a plan to release a 64 bit version of the app?

Edit: Oh just found in other posts about that and that it seems pretty difficult and thus unlikely.
[Android Apps and Games] QQNoob:
I've been using Aves Libre for a while now on my Pixel 7 Pro, and it's a decent alternative, but I'm looking for another gallery app with one specific feature that QuickPic had.

I want it to ignore folders including a .nomedia file, but have a feature to show them, and have that feature locked behind a password just like QuickPic can do.

Anyone know of a gallery app that works on a Pixel 7 that has this feature?
[Android Apps and Games] mugendon:
Simple Gallery Pro feels pretty much like a reimplantation of Quick Pic and thus also has the feature you mentioned.
[Android Apps and Games] QQNoob:
You don't mean Smart Gallery Pro, do you? They literally have Quick Pic in their name. It was the third result when I searched for Simple.

The recent reviews for Simple Gallery Pro are all terrible.
[Android Apps and Games] mugendon:
Simple Gallery is correct. Afaik the reviews are terrible because they made some kind of forced migration from the normal app to pro version. But the app itself is still great.
[Android Apps and Games] QQNoob:
I ended up buying Smart Gallery Pro, and it has all the same features it seems. It has the ones I mentioned, for instance. The Simple Gallery Pro is only $1.50, so maybe I'll try both and compare.

Maybe I won't. The more I play with Smart Gallery Pro the more I like it. It's got all the features I was looking for, and also has a configurable number of columns, which is nice.

The only thing it can't do so far is pinch to zoom on raw files. Seems like an odd limitation. You can double-tap to zoom slightly, but that's it.

UPDATE: I ended up buying Simple Gallery Pro, too. One of these apps is a straight rip-off of the other. The settings and the text for them are almost exactly the same. However, Simple Gallery Pro has more settings like file thumbnail spacing, and the ability to put folder names under the icons instead of on them (enabled when you use rounded corner folder icons). Simple Gallery Pro has no problem zooming into raw files. And it's half the price!

I guess I wasted $3 buying the other one first.

Is there a possibility to please add a right-click/long-press on the path under image details to be able to copy just the path to the clipboard, so it can be pasted into Total-Commander to enable rapid CD'ing into that image's directory, (sometimes a long folder path).

@WSTxda

Thanks for updating and maintaining QuickPic/Gallery. Been using it since a very long time ago.

Recently got a new phone running Android 12 and I cannot get the app to access the MicroSD card storage anymore.

It asks for permission to access all files and storage when first started and I do give it permission to do so.

I want to add just the DCIM folders Internal/External to be used by the app, but when I go to browse it only shows internal storage.

I have also tried enabling using external file manager app to set the path to the external storage but that also does not seem to be working.

I set it and when browsing it still shows the integrated file manager of QuickPic.

Also worth noting when looking at the info for the app the phone reports that NO PERMISSIONS has been requested by the app.

Which is really strange since I DID set it to be allowed file and storage access on being asked. Also it is listed as having been given this permission.

Please let me know if there is some way to get around this or if a fix is being worked on.

Thank you very much.

[Feature request]

Hi,

when opening images in simple smsmessenger I have no option to same them, would it be possible to add the "share option" to QuickPic when opening a single instance?

from there I can use Imagesaver apk to store them to disk.
[Android Apps and Games] manigma:
Hi @WSTxda

Can you please fix this auto rotate bug for QuikPic in Android 13?

Issue: In Android 13 (MiUi 14 here), if screen rotation is done at main page (Albums page), it will override/reset 'Show hidden' function and unhidden albums will hide again. So I need to apply 'Show hidden' on main Albums page eveytime the screen auto rotates. This happens only at the main Albums page, not when you are browsing the hidden album itself.

I guess this is an issue being old 32 bit code. So I am not sure if you will be able to fix it. But please do look into it. Thanks.

I'd like to know if animated webp works. I tried different versions but animated webp don't run. And I would really like to use this app for webp, since it does say that it supports it and it is the best gallery viewer I know of. Instead of being a modern standard webp is practically not supported by anyone. You can't trust any app to open it properly, while gif still dominates. So foes this app work with animated webp or not? Anyone has an observation?
[Android Apps and Games] dante.24:
Webp as a static pic works but animated webp still not working..i always have to convert to gif when needed.
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
For some reason all of a sudden QP stops showing covers I selected for my folders/directories in QP - it works before, but stops and the only thing I can think of what I did was to enable Developer mode. I am on Lenovo Tablet with Android 12.

I am using the latest QP v9.1.5 BETA, but this happens with v9.1 - I updated thinking it could help, but did not.

If I try to select some picture as a cover image for a specific folder in QP, it does nothing. Like I can select a picture, click OK, but that's it - no cover image is shown for a folder, yet it worked beautifully before.

It looks to me as if QP lost permission to write this kind of settings, but I do not have rooted my device, so I cannot check this I guess, right? Maybe if I know where to look for a file with these settings I could edit it myself somehow?

BTW clearing QP memory cache did not work/helped either.

Also: can anyone tell me if there is a way how to change QP language to english (I do not see it anywhere in the QP settings)? It is using now Android system language which I do not want cos then I do not know ho to report a problem not knowing original english wording of the problematic parts, gee (hope this does make sense).

LENOVO Tab K10, Android 12. issues with this release so far (both normal and alt versions):

getting THIS APP WAS BLOCKED by Google Play Protect, saying it was created for older Android version, I had to click "Install anyway"

still not addressing the issue with Folder Cover option not functioning anymore (as I described before): one can select image, click OK but nothing happens, it looks like some sort of permission is missing or denied but not reported to user

I see no option for selecting language - app automatically gets OS default language which is not what I want (I would like to have it in english), tho it seems like it should be there somewhere according to posts form others (or am I wrong?)
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
You will always get that from play protect when signature has changed. As far as pick a pic for folder, I have no idea what that is. As far as I know it uses 1st image in folder and always has. Set images to display alphabetical and rename image you want used to be the 1st image
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
No, it should not be that way as I completely deleted previous installation so it should be taken as new app.

As for the Folder Image: you can set whatever image to be as a cover (that is what is shown in the QP browser for the folder) by holding/selecting specific folder and from the menu selecting that option (Change Cover > Select): one do not need to change folder sorting only to have the image he wants as the folder image = you are wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] replica9000:
1. I believe the play store requires new apps to target SDK 30 (Android 11), but the target API for QP is still SDK 23 (Android 6). This is just a warning the app may not function as expected.

2. Works on my phone, OP8T still on A11.

3. This isn't really a common option for apps. Only a handful of apps on my phone have an option for this. If your tablet is rooted, then there might be a Magisk module to trick apps into thinking the default OS language is something other than the default.
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
As for point Nr.2: yes, it worked quite normally for me as well for a period of time, but suddenly stopped working and I have no clue why, that is why I am reporting it... Maybe if we would know where the settings are written one could write the path to the image himself (tho I guess it would require one to have rooted device as I think those files are somewhere in the Android system file structure).
[Android Apps and Games] replica9000:
Not sure if you can access the folder on a non-rooted device, but the relevant file is /data/data/com.alensw.PicFolder/files/folder_covers
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
I don't and never had that option on qp gallery app. Also doesn't matter what installation you have, the qp mod app is signed with a key not recognized by play protect, sending you that message original signature is the original meta inf folder inside the apk
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
Thanks for this, once I root my device I will try to edit it manually.

Well, this is pretty strange as I always had it like already in version I guess v4.5.2.2 and also in this new MODs - it is a standard functionality of QuickPic so you not having it is unimaginable, but whatever. Anyway, I will try to root my device and edit those settings manually then, we'll see what will happen.
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
Did you actually mean "/Android/data/com.alensw.PicFolder/files/folder_covers"? Cos if so, I can access that without the root privilegues and yet there is no folder_covers inside the files folder (files folder is completely empty) on my other device where that functionality still works nice.
[Android Apps and Games] replica9000:
The file location I posted is correct. /data/data/com.alensw.PicFolder is where the settings are stored, and /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.alensw.PicFolder is where the cache and temp files are stored.
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
Aha! So I really do have to have my device rooted to be able see/edit those files, which at least for one of them (Xiaomi Redmi 9T) is quite hard to do (well, at least from my perspective - nonprofessisonal - compared to older times several yrs back when rooting on my phones was mostly done easily, like one click here and there, compared to today). So I guess unless the developer would decide to change the settings file location (if it is possible), it seems to be out of reach for me as a possible solution by manually editing that folder_covers setting sin there.

Tho the problem is occurring not on Redmi 9T, but on my other device LENOVO Tab K10., so maybe rooting K10 is easier, who knows?
[Android Apps and Games] qoqodqo:
Oh, my oh my, I just solved it!

Settings > System > Devleoper options > Don't keep activities <===== THIS OPTION NEEDS TO BE SWITCHED OFF, as I have it on for some reason.

After that folder cover works again...great!!!

Are there any possibilities for a possible 64bit release?
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Doubtful, but there is a magisk module that fixes this I believe. I would search in the pixel 7 threads for the mod.
[Android Apps and Games] Corti88:
If i remember correctly though Magisk works only on rooted devices right? 🤔

Because right now, I'm not going to root my Pixel 7A, it's only 4 days old! Before I get my hands on it, I'd like to use it a bit! 🤣
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Yup. I know I'm always going to root, so I get it out of the way immediately. Only unrooted device I have is my 1+7T that is from work. But google just came out with a simple gallery app that I suggest checking until you decide what to do. It's not Google photos, look for google gallery on the playstore.
[Android Apps and Games] manigma:
Try Simple Gallery Pro. You can google for a free pro version too but its not that expensive. Its the best alternative to Quickpic.

What to do so that the files of the external SD Card are displayed, because when I want to select the external SD Card in the Included Folder : Root > Storage there is nothing to display on my Galaxy A52 under Android 11 :-(

I have the same issue. In include menu explorer browser there's no external SD, only internal phone memory. I'd like to have one single folder on external SD card scanned and included, with all the others the others automatically excluded. I have around 23.000 photos in this folder and it loads very slowly (looks like it's scanning entire storage every time I open the app).

Hi, On pixel 7 phone, running stock ROM, Android 13, when I try to install, I get: App not installed as app isn't compatible with your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] bemanet:
Please read for example #1941...
[Android Apps and Games] cpoxda:
Thanks bemanet.

I searched for the key words: "not compatible" and I got no hits in the thread. I'm typing this now in case it helps somebody else to find this info: It's not compatible with 64 bit only phones. I searched just in this thread and it came back with no hits. But I see that it is mentioned so I don't know why the search wasn't working...

I think this should be in the original post rather than in the FAQ. There will be many people like myself who will be confused why it doesn't install. So I'll put it here in case it helps somebody who's searching for this:

It doesn't work on phones that only support 64 bit apps. It will not work on Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro phones. Highly likely that same goes for soon to be released Pixel 8 phones, no go.

And lastly from the FAQ (which is linked in the OP):

I cannot install on my Pixel 7/Pixel 7 Pro, what is the issue?

QuickPic was developed exclusively to operate on smartphones that run on 32-bit architecture. Unfortunately, Pixel 7 and 7 Pro devices are only capable of supporting 64-bit apps, making QuickPic incompatible with these smartphones.

Due to the complexity of compiling the app with 64-bit support because of the absence of the project's source code, it is not possible to fix this issue.
[Android Apps and Games] Thebear j koss:
Huh? No idea what you are talking about. This is a gallery app. A very simple gallery app. There is no writing or drawing in a gallery app that was designed for devices over 10 years ago when this app was made and this version is built off of. I use a photo editor to add text, modify, and draw on images. This is an app to view your images, not to alter them.
