What layout does new instagram android app use as its gallery image picker?


I am trying to make a gallery image picker like the one used by Instagram on android. I did some research but could not find anything. So any hints or tips on how I can I achieve that layout?


Solution

  • In the end I used a RecyclerView with a FrameLayout on top containing a crop view. Alos there is a scroll listener and touch listener, I achieved the same layout as instagram's image picker. I also used google's gallery app code to load the images much faster. I'll be posting it on github soon and I'll update this post with the link

    EDIT: This is a link to a project that does what I wanted. Link to project
