Pretty nifty trick to declutter your gallery

Would be nice if there was a way to be specific. Like all the music folders with album art that I don't want to show in my gallery but still want shown in my media player. I was so hopeful for a moment there.

Still a cool find though!

    GrapheneOS has Storage Scopes which allow you to define which folders an app can access. In this case, you'd give your media app access to that folder but not your gallery app. Pretty handy but it's only on Pixels and one Motorola phone at the moment.

    Isn't your gallery able to hide specific albums/folders? I would imagine that is a pretty standard and rational feature.

    One of the downsides of the built in graphene gallery is limited functionality. I haven't found that option. I agree though, it should be an included feature. I probably just need to setup a more limited storage space for it like the other person suggested.

    Love your little profile shark btw. 🙂
