Basic (Virtual) Folder Grouping #194

Feature description

Basic virtual groups are a way of sorting folders from the internal storage and/or SD card in a way that doesn't interfere with the storage itself (ex. creating a folder to host multiple other folders) Best example I have of this feature is the Samsung Gallery. While there are albums for each folder, we can create a group to add a series of folders in it for the sake of convenience and to look for things more easily instead of searching around a few dozen useless folders to find an image or video. Picture below is an example of how a group should look like: Screenshot_20240403-120355_Gallery Virtual groups aren't just limited to groups that host multiple folders but they can also have subgroups inside.

Why do you want this feature?

This feature is really just for convenience and ease of use of the gallery app. For me personally, as someone who has probably over 50 folders that contain media from the amount of apps I've used over the years that created their own folders it's a deal-breaker not having virtual grouping functions in a gallery app (which is why I used to stick with the Samsung gallery app for quite some time)
