Last month, we learned that Samsung Gallery will no longer support OneDrive syncing, with support fully ending by September 30. While the feature is still technically usable, Samsung has removed the syncing feature from newer versions of the app.<\/p>\n

For those who heavily relied on the sync feature, now is a great time to see what else is out there. One natural route is to consider a photo backup app that also has gallery features. For those who prefer a more traditional gallery app, there\u2019s also a workaround that will let you still have cloud backup capabilities.<\/p>\n

With all that out of the way, here are the seven gallery or photo apps I recommend over Samsung Gallery.<\/p>\n

Google Photos<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

Samsung Gallery was always designed with local media in mind, though in the past, you could still easily back things up to the cloud using OneDrive. In contrast, Google Photos is primarily focused on cloud storage and ensuring all your photos can be viewed from virtually any device. That means its UI isn\u2019t quite as tailored for the pure gallery experience.<\/p>\n

That said, this doesn\u2019t mean Google Photos isn\u2019t a capable Gallery app.\u00a0Both tools offer a decent amount of editing tools, including AI features like the ability to erase objects. You\u2019ll also find that both apps let you do basics like adjusting brightness, saturation, and more. Where Samsung stands out is that it also adds features like watermarking, drawing tools, and stickers to the mix.<\/p>\n

Google Photos is easy to recommend as a replacement if you are looking for a more basic feature set and consider cloud syncing a priority. To make the most of Photos, you\u2019ll likely want a Google One subscription, as the free tier only gets you a maximum of 15GB of space across Google services.<\/p>\n

Amazon Photos<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

Amazon Photos was already a decent gallery and backup app, but last month it received a major update with a much-improved UI. The older photo…<\/p>\n
