I’m looking for a file manager or gallery app that will let me browse to particular directories easily (prefer a file manager interface for this), look at images I find in them, and (this seems to be the really hard part) easily rename them while I’m looking at them. I don’t want a conventional gallery app that just presents one huge list of all the folders it found anywhere on my device, as there can be several with the same name, and it’s tedious to figure out what directory each one is under. I need to be able to go to a particular directory, look at the images within, and rename them while looking at them - the quicker & easier the better.
Lavender Photos. Will just be named Photos in app list.
You can switch to album view which essentially shows all directories, not quite file manager like as you asked though. But when you view an image you can rename it, just had a look if that works.
That is indeed a nice gallery app, but the lack of direct filesystem browsing prevents it from being useful for my particular needs. Thanks for the suggestion, though - I’m thinking of leaving it installed anyway. Will have to play with it some more.
