Roadmap

If time permits, I intend to eventually add these:

• settings & preferences
• feature: XMP tag edition (likely with pixymeta-android)
• feature: location edition
• map view
• gesture: long press and drag thumbnails to select multiple items
• gesture: double tap and drag image to zoom in/out (aka quick scale, one finger zoom)
• support: burst groups
• support: Android R
• subsampling/tiling

Known issues

• privacy: cannot opt out of Crashlytics reporting (cf flutterfire issue #1143)
• gesture: double tap on image does not zoom on tapped area (cf photo_view issue #82)
• performance: image info page stutters the first time it loads a Google Maps view (cf flutter issue #28493)
• performance: image decoding is slow
