Xperia 5 V - Album app not supported

AndraOpris — Sun, 12 Nov 2023 20:44:50 GMT

Hi everyone,

Just bought the new Xperia 5 V and noticed that the Album app is not supported anymore. My photos and videos are now to be found all in the Files app. Is there any other app similar to Album that I can use for Xperia, or Files is the only option that I have?

Thank you!

I use Files and I find it very good. You can also add your photos to your favorites, find them in the trash, put them in a folder protected by a passcode, and organize them by folder

Sony's Album app was great, I liked that too! Unfortunately, they've dropped support and now, as a default, we can use Files, Gallery or Photos from Google Play Store.

You can still install Sony Album app from 3rt party stores. I'm using version 9.9.A.0.20 (the latest I could find) on a Xperia 1V and works perfectly. Keep in mind that you don't have future updates for this app.
