Last updated
Simple Gallery successor Fossify Gallery runs as an org.fossify package on Android. Private storage holds settings and vault cache. The cache covers hidden items. Media itself stays on shared storage. Included folders point to that shared area. That split matters during backup.
No iOS build exists, so only Android is stated here. Back up vault items from inside the app before wiping. Export matters. Reinstalls without export lose hidden media. The vault password is needed to open those items again. Keep it ready.
