5 Free Photo Organizer App for Android

Here is a list of the best free photo organizer app for Android. The Gallery app on Android lists all the photos in one place. With many apps and folders, it quickly becomes a mess before you know it. There are lots of photos and gallery apps that sort out the photos as neat as possible. But it’s not organizing as those apps only sort photos by folders maybe be dates. In the storage, all those photos are still a mess spread across multiple folders. You can also use a file explore for this as it actually lets you cut, copy and paste the photos. But with multiple folders and hundreds of photos, that won’t be a convenient solution either. In such a scenario, these photo organizer apps can be helpful.

These apps offer different ways to truly organize all your photos on Android. They combined the UI friendliness of a photos app with organizing features of a file explore. As a result, you can browse all your photos in one place with the capability to move, copy, delete photos among folders. You can create new albums and organize photos within the existing albums.

My Favorite Photo Organizer App

All these apps mainly use 2 methods to organize photos. The first method is actually moving the files between folders. These changes also get reflected in the Android Gallery. And the other method is organizing the photos within the respective app leaving the Android Gallery intact. There is also an app that organizes the photos in its own direction and removes them from Android Gallery. This is a mix of both methods. When it comes to organizing photos, I personally like to organize the actual files and not just in some app. This way, I’ll get an organized Gallery for all the apps. pickPic matches my sorting needs so that is my favorite app on this list. You can check these apps yourself and pick one that suits your needs.
