Re: Aspect ratio grid option on Android devices. Is this possible?

Aspect ratio grid option on Android devices. Is this possible?

I installed the most recent update on my Android device this week and am struggling with photo thumbnails in Files. The Grid view has homogenized all photos to the same size and a horizontal orientation; which is the opposite of what I need. I also have an iPhone and on that device I have an option for an Aspect Ratio Grid view - is there something I can do to get this view on my Android device?

Hi there, @neptunejcn, I hope you're doing well!

 

If you don't see that option when you try to select a view in your Files tab, on your Android mobile, then I'm afraid there isn't a relevant setting, that you can use to enable it at the moment. 

 

I'll forward your feedback to the appropriate areas so we can continue to improve, and hopefully add this to the Android app soon. 

 

Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for your quick response. Do you have any idea what problem was being solved by removing aspect ratio from the grid view for Android? It was the default before recent updates.

Hey @neptunejcn, I'm afraid I don't have that info, but I'll definitely make sure to let our Team know about this. 

 

Also, I'll update this thread, provided that I have more info in the future.
