All have their own silly galleries and have a nonfunctional share portal.
Explanation: Apps dont need access to your storage to load content into their internal sandbox storage.
They can use the native android photo picker portal:
GIF (click if not playing)
Or they can catch media sent to them via the share dialog, from your trusted Gallery or Filemanager app.
Apps using a builtin Gallery suck, as they need access to all media (Android 14), specific folders (GrapheneOS) or even all storage (older Android) which is pretty invasive.
You seem to have some particular privacy concerns that I’m not totally in the know about, but if it being an app isn’t a requirement, I’ve used photojoiner.com with great success and no obnoxious stuff to my knowledge.
They do have an app, but I’m not sure it will meet your privacy requirements.
You sound like someone who has a pretty locked down browser, so all it should get is what you supply, but if you want to keep it locally, I don’t imagine this would help you, but if it’s not the photos but rather your other data and location you wish to protect, this may work.
Again, I’m not hardcore into data privacy, so I may be off on what you need.
Thanks! Yeah that is a service running entirely on their site, so permissionwise very good but they get your stuff. There are lots of browser tools running locally using javascript, and images never leave the browser.

Also, not sure how you can make a collage without access to photos/media?
Portal in, transform, portal out. Have a look at ZiXTract, it works.
