Overview
The LeafPic Gallery is an simple and informative application for android users. Where you have quick access to your files on the phone and also change the themes base on the user's favorite color. This alternative gallery is still in Beta and I tested it. So far, I didn't encounter a problem in this application . Instead, I am making a suggestion to it.
This app is free from ads and does not collect any user/device information and it runs on beta mode. This app was updated last October 9, 2016 version v0.6-beta-1 has a total download of 50,000+ on playstore.
Suggestion
It's been a while since I download this app and use it as my default gallery in my phone and from, what I had observe is that the application doesn't have a direct access to the phones camera which is I find it usefull to this app and to the user it self.
My suggestion about this application is to add CAMERA ICON in the top right portion of the app which the user can directly see it and more conveint to the user to touch/click it .This is very usefull to the app, to have direct access to phone's camera.
Mockups / Examples
This is my edited sample on the application if implemented.
This what it looks like on the apps Gallery.
Benefits
By adding this feature would have mutual benefit for the application and the user.
For the user, it would be a big help for the user because theres no need to exit the app to take picture instead just touch/click the camera icon then take a picture after that he/she can preview the picture by the use of the application.
For the application, it would be a great help because by clicking the camera icon feature it will automatically launch the phone's camera.
conclusion
This will definitely make the app advance and more useful for the user and to the app itself.
