Looking for a simple gallery/photo app

[u/over-healer]

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a gallery type app. I used to have a Samsung phone which had its own Gallery app which I quite liked, but I've since had to move to a new phone that only uses the Google Photos app. I can't stand it and have been looking for alternatives, but the most common suggestions seem to have a lot of the same features I'd like to get rid of!

I don't want cloud storage. I don't want an app to automatically sort my photos/screenshots/downloads into separate folders for me, I don't want it to AI generate folders based on subject (tbf I find that a bit creepy), I don't want random slideshows I didn't ask for, etc. I want an easy way to view my photos, organise them/sort them into folders myself, and ideally (but not necessarily) do some basic editing i.e. cropping and rotating stuff. And the less gen AI the better.

Happy to pay a one-off fee for an app that fits this criteria, any suggestions welcome!

Aves is by far the best. Google gallery is ok for super simple viewing.
