And so your software will be poisoned by value extraction from the user, which will be inferior to software from someone not wanting to make money, which I'll use instead. :D

Name a non-abstract but existing superior free gallery software for Android downloadable from f-droid.

It must:

1. Support mediaapi - not be confused about where Whatsapp puts its images.

2. Allow management of files.

3. Be able to provide basic organization (folders/sorting[per folder]/cover images)

4. Support all modern image formats used by phones and the web.

5. Not crash.

6. Not delete/corrupt files by accident.

7. Be able to play modern video/audio files (pick top 20 popular codecs)

I love open source, but the general level of quality in most open source is... not great.
