Photo management

Nexus 5, 4.4.4
The most annoying thing about my phone is the lack of ability to manage photos; creating albums, moving photos from one album to another, etc. The stock Gallery app does not provide this. I used QuickPic for a while, but then I found that if I used the editor from quickpic, then tried to save, I got "load failed" and the photo was LOST! The edit features that I want are things like brightness, contrast, etc. Not just crop and resize.
I hate to resort to file managers to manage my photos. My current solution is to use Gallery to view and edit, and Quickpic to manage albums. There must be a better way.
Any ideas?
 
So I was on here last week trying to solve the exaxt same problem. What I pretty much walked away with is that to organize photos in the files You want them in, and choose Your organizing method I would have to dl an app specifically for that, and there were a few suggested that others found worked well for them. I even dled one from a poster who i believe designed the software. But tttt, I still wasnt getting anywhere fast. I even considered syncing to my em and putting them in folders there, then i opened a 📁 app that wasn't on my screen prior to me accidently hitting when picking some other
apps. Heres what i figured out that was rightunder my nose. What's really surprising is that no one else here seemed to know about it or at least suggest it. So here goes. Go to the my files app on your phone and when you open it it gives you categories to select. Choose images, and from there you can make files you name, and then you can
go to your choice of pic storages to choose your, photos, or gallery, and even the Camara apps that save for you-to pick the pictures you want placed in that folder! Hooray! Its really nice to have this figured out after spending so much time being
frustrated with it, and better yet reapin the benefits sure makes my obsession with using different Camara effects a heck of alot easier! Try it out, it works great! Seeya, CyberYadda
