About Aves
Aves is a gallery and metadata explorer app built for Android with Flutter. It browses images and videos, including JPEG, MP4, multi-page TIFF, SVG and AVI files, and shows associated file information. It scans a media collection to identify motion photos, panoramas, 360° videos and GeoTIFF files, and supports navigation between albums, photos, tags and maps.
It works as a media viewer and picker and integrates with Android, including Android TV, with widgets, app shortcuts, screen saver and global search handling. It is Android-only and requires permissions such as media access, location access and internet for functions including map view and reverse geocoding.
