Phone is Moto G Stylus with Android 13. Whenever I launch the built in photos app, it now gives me a nag screen to download a version upgrade. When I click “upgrade”, nothing happens. It’s conceivable that I have network permission disabled for the app. I better check.

  1. Is this a familiar thing? How do I make it stop, either by installing the upgrade or by shutting off the nag screen?

  2. Is there a FOSS photo viewer that anyone recommends instead, that I can install from F-droid? I’m reasonably satisfied with the UI of the Google one. It allows sharing photos, moving them into subfolders, seeing the metadata, and some minor editing, all of which are useful. I don’t care in the slightest about cloud sync or google drive so it’s ok if the replacement app doesn’t have those.

Thanks!

      It’s amazing. It has Curves, Clone Stamp, arbitrary rotation, image overlay, text overlay, drawing tools… and on and on. You can sort the buttons at the bottom to have your most used tools on the left. There’s a menu that does it: Use the three-bar menu in that row which opens all of the tools buttons for easy access in a single window, and at the bottom is a sort icon that lets you drag them up and down in a list.
