Open Gallery to album #172

Closed HoveringGoat closed 7 months ago

HoveringGoat commented 8 months ago

Proposal

Being able to save images to different albums is super nice but there isnt a great way in flutter (after much searching) to open a specific folder/album in gallery. Gals open is okay but i know WHAT im trying to open to and would be much nicer for the user if they could jump straight there instead of having to do another navigate.

Use case

being able to open a album/folder directly in the native app. For my use case is organizing the photos. Displaying them the default apps can do a better job. No need to reinvent the wheel here.

Thank you for your contribution 🤝 @HoveringGoat

Upon investigation, I could not find a way to achieve this functionality. Presumably, opening an album in gallery app directly from an external app is not supported by the native OS due to privacy and other concerns.
