Would be great to have option to make save button save over original, to increase speed of use.

Share to application otherwise for save out.

Great little program.

Would be great to have option to make save button save over original, to increase speed of use.

Unfortunately Android-s StorageAccessFramework api (SAF) does not allow me to replace the existing file content.
Creating a new foto-file is easy and works as expected.

Replacing File content would require:

• Create a new-File.
• If successfull Delete the original file
• and rename new-File to old-filename.
• update the media-Database.

This is much too complicated and not propper working if one of the operations fails. This is one of the reasons why i stoped developing my gallery app https://github.com/k3b/APhotoManager/

Greetings, It certainly sounds like a hassle and see why you opted not to do it! I did find these two pages if it helps: https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage#filesExternal Thankyou again for the great app, I will be patient with using it as needed with a computer is not about :-) With benevolent wishes
