Photo gallery

• HEIC, RAW, GIF, WebP, motion photos, panoramas and 360 photos
• Make Pixmiro your default gallery app

Pixmiro is a photo gallery app for Android and iPhone that keeps everything on the phone: no account, no adverts and nothing uploaded. If you have been looking for a gallery app without ads, or a photo gallery app that works offline, this is the heart of what Pixmiro does.

The grid is quick. Pinch to show between 2 and 6 columns, drag to select many photos at once, and use the timeline scrubber to jump months in a second. A calendar view, albums, favourites and a bin that keeps deleted items for 30 days complete the basics. You can move and copy files (and rename them on Android), edit the date and location, and read the full photo info.

A photo gallery app is only useful if it opens what you actually have. Pixmiro handles HEIC, RAW, GIF and WebP, live photos on iPhone, motion photos on Android, panoramas and 360 photos, and videos including MKV and AVI. Videos play with speed control from 0.25x to 3x, a scrubbing preview, loop and picture-in-picture.

Finding a picture does not need the cloud. You can search by what is in a photo and by text inside it, such as a receipt or a sign, and the search runs on the phone. Automatic categories sort food, animals, nature, documents, vehicles and people. Face grouping is off by default; when you switch it on you can name, merge or hide people, and delete all face data whenever you like. Places shows your photos on an offline map.

Can't find the gallery on your phone, or does the built-in gallery app keep closing? On Android, Pixmiro can be set as the default gallery app, so photos open in it from anywhere. On iPhone, use "Open in Pixmiro" from other apps.

As a photo gallery organiser it goes further than a grid: stories, stacks that group bursts and pick the sharpest shot, slideshows, and memories built from trips and occasions such as New Year and Eid. When you share a photo, its location and camera data are removed by default.

The whole gallery, reels, stories and slideshow are usable without paying. Pro adds tools such as unlimited description and text search, People and memory videos, with a 14-day trial that needs no payment.

Pixmiro brings together a reels and video player for your own photos and videos, a gallery, an audio player, a photo vault, a video compressor, a phone cleaner, a screen recorder and a sound recorder. No account, no adverts, nothing uploaded.

It all stays on your phone. Pixmiro works offline, and your photos, videos and files never leave the handset. The only thing it sends is an anonymous crash report, which you can switch off in Settings.
