What is Picture Manager?
Some manufactures like HTC and Sony (probably some more) save pictures taken with an incremented number in the filename, instead with a timestamp like other manufactures do.
When you factory reset your device, buy a new device or clean flash a custom rom, the camera picture counter gets reset and starts with e.g. IMAG_00001 again.
This can be an issue once you backup your files to a harddrive on your PC, because you will have duplicate filenames, although the pictures are actually different.
Picture Manager solves this problem by renaming your taken pictures with a timestamp format that you can select or even define yourself.
You can either start a batch process before you backup your pictures to your HDD, or automatically let Picture Manager rename your files in the background.
Another nice feature Picture Manager offers is that you can let it organize your taken pictures into folders that are named by the year, month and even day.
That will help you to quickly find your pictures again and brings some organization into you pictures.
Requirements
You have to be on at least Android 5.0 Lollipop
How does it work
Picture Manager relies on the EXIF Metadata that is stored into each picture. The EXIF Metadata contains a lot of information, the one Picture Manager needs is the date the picture was taken.
With that information Picture Manager can reliably rename and organize your pictures.
Tasker Plugin
Picture Manager comes with a Tasker Action Plugin. That means that you can start a batch process on different events, like time, when usb gets connected etc.
Premium features
If you want to use the custom format, background service or the Tasker plugin you need to upgrade to the premium version.
To upgrade you can use an in app purchase. Or you paypal me and I mail you a premium code. That way google doesn't get 30% of the income.

Downloads
Picture Manager is available in the playstore:
FAQ
Q: What about videos?
A: Picture Manager can also handle mp4 recorded videos.
Q: What about other manufactures than HTC and Sony?
A: I just know about those two that use an incremented number in their filename. If you know more, let me know. If your files are already timestamped you can still use the organizer to move your files into timestamped folders.
Q: After using the organizer I have sometimes missing files in my gallery?
A: Use the media scanner built in Picture Manager to make those files visible.
Q: Will the background service drain a lot of battery?
A: Picture Manager makes use of Androids JobSheduler, like Google Photos and Amazon Photos instant upload and is very battery friendly. When checking GSAM stats, it is nearly at the very bottom of the list.

[APP][2.3+] Panels - A New Way To Share Apps

Ever been asked to recommend apps?
Anyone still recommending apps by providing a long long list of app names or links?
Anyone want to remember apps they like without writing it down onto a list?
Panels
A New Way To Share Apps!
Its extremely simple to use.
To Share Apps
1. Download and install Panels from this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.varience.panels
2. Go to the Add Apps Section and check the apps you want to add then press the + button. (You can also add apps directly from Play Store app)
3. Then go back to the Panel that you've added your apps
4. Press the export button to export out the panel as a file and then distribute it as you wish. There's a share button you can tap too.
To View Apps
1. Download and install Panels from this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.varience.panels
2. Download any Panel files that had been previously exported by other people and place it onto your device. Here's mine: http://goo.gl/O5eix
3. Open up Panels and press the Import button. If the file isn't found, press the refresh button to run a system-wide scan.
4. Browse through all the apps that is now shown.
5. Look at some screenshots, read the descriptions, read notes that other people wrote... and press Install if you want to download.
Extremely simple to use!
With Panels, you're able to quickly share apps of any amount and also have the benefit of keeping them as files to import back at any moment in time.
Another way to use Panels and that's to remember apps!
Ever had an app you really like, but seldomly use?
You feel like uninstalling it because it takes up space, but you don't want to forget about it.
So rather than writing down all these names and hoping you'll remember them in the future... you can just add the app to a Panel and then uninstall!
Apps that are on a panel remain on a panel even if the app isn't installed on your device.
So you can use Panels as a way to remember apps you like and as a quick way to always be able to install them back.

Warning
This is NOT a data backup app like Titanium Backup! It will not backup your data.
Its purpose is just to remember the app and be a better way to share apps.
Just imagine if this was also a data backup app and you've backed up like 12gb of data. Imagine what it would be like to send a 12gb file to share apps. Imagine their surprise when they install the app and say, "Why am I level 86??"
So yes, this is not a data backup app.

Why not simply delete the Whatsapp Images folder?

Maybe you want some of them.
When you send a picture by WhatsApp, the program copy the file into Images folder and then, it send the image.
If you open Gallery app, you will see two copies of the same picture, one on DCIM, for example, and other on WhatsApp Images folder.
Would you like to have a copy of each picture you send?
And, the most interesting point: in my case I receive a lot of funny images and videos that I don't want to see them on Gallery app.
I can delete all of them with a click on a simple and little app (300kb).

I'm studying it, but I think these thumbnails are not saved (I don't know if we are talking about the same pics).
If you share a picture selecting it from chat layout, there is a folder "recent" where are shown the last images you shared, but they are not saved (at least in a visible folder).
I'll check it!
Thank you

Thank you for this app, i have 5 groups on my whatsapp and 2 of them are image spammers, so in like 3 days i have 1k Pics, now browsing through them to delete the ones i don't like in my gallery (18+) is a PIA, do i thank you!
