myAlbum2 : Create multiple albums to store all your pictures, assign a preferred editor to access at the press of a button, and bundle them in a portable file to share with friends, or family
Thousands, if not millions of photos are taken on a daily basis, and when acquiring them from your phone or camera, chances are you also want to keep them organized. If simple folder arrangement doesn’t tickle your fancy, then maybe specialized applications like myAlbum2 do, letting you create, and share different albums, and collections.
Intuitive design quickly gets you up and running
On the visual side of things, the application is pretty well-organized, with the preview area initially being fitted with all operations you can perform, ranging from creating a new album, working with an existing one, to sharing it with friends, or family.Needless to say that the first step is to add pictures. This is done through a browse dialog, asking you to specify a source folder, or using the navigation panel to locate it. Once done, these are enlisted as thumbnails so you can view, and select them for a better preview. You can then easily scroll through them, and even initiate a slideshow in fullscreen mode.
Create more albums, and share with others
Loading pictures doesn’t mean an album is created. This is simply done by writing a name, and filling it with items from the browse section, there’s a button to add all of them, or you can pick them one by one. As the application suggests, it’s best to enable the option to save thumbnails, so it doesn’t always spend time generating them.The application doesn’t let you edit pictures, not even rotate them. On the other hand, it does provide the option to load your preferred editor at the press of a button, with the default one being MS Paint. Pictures you like can even be set as wallpapers.Last but not least, the application gives you the possibility to share albums with others. This is done by choosing whether to save the whole album, or just specific images, and whether or not to compress them to take less space. However, the file you send needs to be opened in the application, so sharing also implies telling your friends about the application.
To sum it up
Bottom line is that with the abundance of pictures you take nowadays, it’s good to keep them organized in albums. With myAlbum2 this becomes an easy task, given the intuitive design which makes it accessible even to inexperienced individuals. Sharing leaves more to be desired, but the overall set of features, and option to attach a preferred editor make it worth a try.
