Apps like Google Photos have largely taken the pain out of organizing photos for users who do not mind sharing them with Google. But there are users who prefer keeping their memories private and stored locally. This is where apps like Picture Manager come in, allowing users to up their organization game by automatically timestamping and organizing photos in a few different ways. We previously covered the app in April 2018, and since then, the app by XDA Recognized Developer j to the 4n has received updates that have added in more key functionalities.
