QuickPic 4.6.0.1143

A fast and lightweight image viewer that does everything right
While the Android OS comes with a built-in gallery app that does a pretty good job, the default image viewer is by no means perfect. If you are looking for a replacement, QuickPic might just be the perfect answer.

Stylish interface with many features

QuickPic sports a simple and stylish user interface, optimized for both smartphones and tablets. You can choose from several color themes, though I found the default, dark one to be the most pleasing to the eye.

On the main screen you can see all the folders containing images as a stack, grid or list. Long press a folder and you can change its cover. A sliding menu on the left part of the screen offers access to other options, including a different visualization mode called Moments. This mode allows you to browse your photos grouped by the time and location they were taken.

When entering a folder, the pictures inside will be displayed in a grid or list. One tap on an image will show it in full screen, switching to the next picture being done by swiping on the screen. If you want to cycle through all the pics in a folder automatically, you can start a slideshow. There are several transition animations you can choose from and, in case you cannot decide, a random option is also present.

Adjustments for your photos and option to save them in cloud

When it comes to performance, despite its small size, QuickPic is lightning fast. Upon opening, it takes the app very little time to scan your folders for pictures. For even quicker results, you can exclude folders that are unlikely to contain any images from the default search locations.

QuickPic comes with a built-in file browser that makes it easy to manage your images. A long tap on an image starts the multi-selection mode, after which you can copy, move, rename, share or delete selected pictures. And, if you need to make basic adjustments to your photos, there is also a built-in editor that allows you to rotate, crop and resize images.

Store photos in the cloud

If you have photos stored on cloud drives, QuickPic can help you as well. From the sliding menu on the left you can add your online storage services of choice, including Dropbox, Flickr, Google Drive, Picasa and others.

QuickPic also lets users transfer pictures between two devices via WiFi. And that's not all, you can also browse interesting pics posted by other people on popular photo sharing services like 500px and Flickr. In addition to that, the app lets you secure pictures by using patterns or a PIN code. You can also have it automatically backup photos to specified cloud with WiFi.

Bottom Line
Design / UI9
 

The user interface is pleasant to the eye and navigation is fluid. Definitely a worthy replacement for the built-in gallery app.

Function9
 

After using QuickPic once, chances are it will become your default image viewer, as it was my case. Lightweight and extremely fast, the app does all a viewer is supposed to do and even more.

Security9
 

QuickPic doesn't require unnecessary permissions. Internet access is needed to access cloud storage services and the others permissions are self-explanatory.

Battery9
 

QuickPic was optimized in all areas and power consumption is not an exception. You can confidently view all your pictures without having to worry about battery life.

Price10
 

QuickPic is completely free, without ads of any kind, so there's no reason not to use it.

Compatibility9
 

Optimized to run on smartphones and tablets alike, QuickPic is compatible with a wide range of devices.
