The CyanogenMod team has decided it was high time to provide users with a better experience than before when it comes to the photo viewing capabilities of CM-based devices, and it has released a new Gallery app for them.

Called GalleryNext, the new application was made available for download in a beta version via the official Google Play Store, and is meant to replace the AOSP Gallery app that is currently shipping inside CyanogenMod ROMs, the team announced.

With this software, users will be able to view all their pictures in one centralized location, while also enjoying cloud services integration, including Flickr, Picasa (G+), Facebook, and Dropbox.

Moreover, the software comes with support for automatic grouping and classification of media based on metadata, video playback, Gif support, deduplication in “All” view, and more other features.

Those who would like to take GalleryNext for a spin will have to join a dedicated community and then head over to the Google Play store to download it.
