Description
- Metadata support even for non-JPEG media
Bundled with the Exiv2 library, this app supports reading metadata from image formats that are not currently supported by the server-side reader, such as HEIC and JXL. Video metadata is also supported.
- Better albums
Client-side albums provide extra features compared with server-side albums, like inserting memos and maps between photos. You can also customize album covers and sorting.
- Simple image editing
Includes various color adjustment tools and effect filters.
- JPEG XL support
JXL is a next-generation image format with superior compression ratio. While JXL is not currently supported by Nextcloud or Android, this app includes a JXL decoder.
- Open source
The app source code is available on GitHib under the GPL license.

Map
Face grouping support via the server-side Recognize or Face Recognition app
Various AI image enhancement models, like 4x super-resolution
Shared albums
and more
- Supported formats
JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, GIF, JPEG XL
MP4, WebM (for videos, codec support varies by device)
* This is the ad-supported version. It has the same feature set as the paid version. Please consider buying the app if you like it, as your support is very much needed!
