No, we have not been exaggerated with the title, and it is that F-Stop is an incomparable image gallery both on Android and iOS as well as on a Windows PC. We say this because this app could almost be called a digital asset management system that is capable of real-time searches of 200.000 images.
We put a few filters and even if we have thousands and thousands of images, it will update immediately. And no, there is no image gallery that can do something similar. So let's go to it with this gallery of images that if you went through QuickPic at some point, then you stayed with the Samsung app because of how well it works, surely F-Stop will be your favorite app from this day on.

We mainly focus on your real-time search ability of the hundreds of thousands of photos or images that you may have on your mobile, for a simple reason: and that is that it can be more and more difficult to organize the photos that we are receiving from different channels.
The photos we take, those that we pass on WhatsApp, those that we download, those of WhatsApp groups with grandparents, uncles and family sending every photo of their life or those many others that we like to save for wallpapers or simply because we like nature and animals to screencast on our television with Chromecast.
