Halation Gallery

Halation Gallery is a photo gallery for Android that lives entirely on your phone. Browse, view, edit, and organize all the photos and videos on your device. The app has no network permission at all, so nothing ever leaves your phone. BROWSE Grid: sticky month sections with fast-scroll and a date bubble that tracks your position. Pinch to change the column density anywhere from one to six columns. New photos show up the moment you take them. Viewer: pinch-zoom, pan, swipe between photos, video playback, motion-photo press-and-hold playback, and a full EXIF metadata panel. Filters: narrow the grid by date range or photo type. ORGANIZE Albums: create, rename, and add or remove photos from the viewer. Reels: automatic "photo shoot" groupings. Tight bursts of shots split into their own shoots; sparse days stay together. People: on-device face grouping. Name people, merge or split groups, and hide the ones you don't care about. Places: photos grouped by where they were taken, named offline from a built-in list of places, with an offline map. No location ever leaves your phone. Things: photos grouped by what's in them, like dogs, food, or documents, recognized on your phone. Folders: move photos between folders and choose which folders appear in your library. Utility flag: mark screenshots and receipts as "utility" and filter them out of the grid. Compare: pick two or more similar shots and narrow them down side by side to the one you want to keep. Trash: deleted photos go to the system trash for 30 days. Browse it, restore photos, or delete them for good, including photos other apps trashed. Plus favorites, rename, set as wallpaper, multi-select, and share through the standard Android share sheet. EDIT Crop, rotate, and adjust exposure on JPEG photos. Save the edit as a new copy, or replace the original (the original goes to the trash, so you can still get it back). Capture time, location, and camera details are kept in the edited file. PRIVACY Halation Gallery doesn't collect any information about you. There are no accounts, analytics, telemetry, or ads. Face, place, and object recognition all run entirely on your phone. The app only asks for permission to read your photos and videos. Screenshot blur: an optional setting that hides your photos behind a color blur, so you can take screenshots of the app without showing what's in your library. Full privacy policy: https://halation.orezeno.app/gallery/privacy/ HALATION CAMERA COMPANION Extra support for photos taken with the Halation Camera app. Bursts, timelapses, and HDR captures collapse into a single stack in the grid, with a badge showing the frame count. HDR captures show the finished photo, with a button to see the individual frames. If Halation Camera encrypts the locations of your photos, Halation Gallery holds the key, so those photos still appear in Places while their locations stay unreadable to other apps. You don't need Halation Camera to use Halation Gallery. Photos from any camera app work as ordinary photos. COMING LATER Search, a private locked folder, and user-controlled backup export.
