Android / / December 19, 2019
More recently, we shared with you the news of the great changes in the popular storage service Flickr photos. But we can not forget about mobile apps. flickr - Android app, It came out very interesting. We will hold a brief tour of its interface and features.
If you do not know what happened to Flickr, then you urgently here. In short, the service is much (very much) put on weight in terms of space available to store photos (1 TB 1 user) and shifted its focus and the overall concept of the interface is on the picture (now 99% of the visible interface and have pictures).
Flickr Mobile application for Android with the first screen recalls the change in the interface concept. Even on the login screen background are solid account photo.
Similarly it looks and the main application screen. By default, we get into the category of contacts, and the screen shows a two-dimensional matrix of the photos placed by our contacts. Each horizontal bar represents skrollyaschiysya set photo from contact, and the contact list is displayed in the vertical direction.
Tap on any photo will open it for viewing and re-tap on the screen will show the available user Actions: View detailed information of a photo, comment, Sharing, as well as the addition of favorites.
It is obvious that the mobile application was created with the specific purpose to give the user the ability to go to fill a photo made at a smartphone. That is why the camera icon always remains in the right side of the pop-up menu (it appears at any scrolling up). Clicking on it opens options: take a photo and fill it, or pour a ready-made photo from the gallery.
Clicking on the Settings icon in the upper left corner leads to a navigation menu, search, manage, and everything else.
Tap on their own account will transfer the user a "personal archive" function well and the rest of the menu items is quite clear from their titles: sorting Matrix pictures for contacts, groups and locations, the latter associated with your activity, search for content, search for friends (here the application ask for permission to download your contact data to your server, and then analyze them and indicate which of your friends are already in Flickr).
Settings can not be considered by some too zamorochennye. It is enough to specify the image upload options (shipping in original quality or compress), optional put conservation on the location of capture data as well as enable / disable notifications when a particular action.
That's all. In fact, the application has left quite successful. All of these strips and bars pictures look very nice and did not brake. If Flickr update made you come back to this service, the mobile Flickr app for Android is sure to become a convenient and useful companion.
