Right Gallery

What Right Gallery is for

Right Gallery is a gallery app for Android that is built around keeping a media library private. It shows the photos and other media files stored on the device, and it adds a lock so that someone else who picks up the phone cannot open them. It is aimed at people who want their pictures kept away from others.

The listing describes the interface as customizable in many ways, but it does not name the individual options. Most of the app's stated features relate to viewing, locking and tidying media, not to sharing or cloud storage.

Browsing photos by folder, date or file type

You can look at media by folder or as one combined view of every media file on the device. Items can be grouped by date, by type, or by file extension, which lets you sort a large collection without setting up folders first.

The listing does not say which file types the grouping covers beyond these three groupings.

Locking the gallery with biometrics or a PIN

Before the gallery contents can be viewed, the app asks for authentication. You can choose a biometric check or a PIN, so the lock works with whatever the phone already supports.

The lock is the app's main protection. It controls access to the gallery only, and the listing does not describe any other protection for the files themselves.

Editing photos inside the gallery

A photo editor is built into the app, so you can change an image without exporting it to a separate editing program. The listing gives no detail on which editing tools it includes.

Privacy: no ads and no trackers

The developer states that the app carries no ads and no trackers. According to the listing, nothing in the app follows you or analyzes your photos.

This is the claim that most distinguishes the app from a typical gallery, which is often supported by advertising. Read it as the developer's own statement, since the listing does not describe how it is checked.
