Solved

Hello, I would like your help today. I would like to know if it's possible, when creating a photo album in our photo gallery, to avoid having the photo duplicated (both in the gallery and in the album). Let me explain: I am a pastry chef and when I want to take a look at my creations, I like them to be well organized by date and album for quicker access. So I create various albums. However, when I move a photo taken with my device into my "Pastry" album, the photo does indeed copy into the album but still exists in the gallery. This creates quite a mess when I want to search for a simple photo. So is it possible to copy the photos into an album or move them so that they are only available IN the album? I have a Samsung Galaxy S10e. Thank you for your help.

    Hello,

    You're confusing albums and storage location.
    • Photos are saved in a folder which is likely DCIM/camera.
    • Gallery is a management tool. It shows all the photos and images present on the smartphone.
    • Pâtisserie is a simple album.


    As long as a photo exists in the storage folder, it can appear in different albums, and of course in "Gallery."
    If you delete a photo from Gallery, it will disappear from the storage folder and all albums.
    Your problem is therefore unsolvable, as the photos will always be present in Gallery.

      Alright, thanks, I at least know that it's useless to look any further.

    Hello

    we do not understand your request....your GALLERY APPLICATION is just the visualization of the images of everything that is in your S10 whether you have created albums or not ...this does not mean that you have them in duplicate....your manual here from page 118
