Title: Nothing Gallery App Bug: All Photos Showing Under Camera Folder & Missing Folders
📱 Device: Nothing Phone (2)
📲 OS Version: [Insert your OS version here – e.g., Nothing OS 2.6.0]
📁 App Version: Latest (Built-in Gallery app)
---
Issue Summary:
I’ve been facing a persistent issue with the default Nothing Gallery app on my Nothing Phone (2) ever since I started using the device. The problem has never been fixed through any software update to date.
---
Problems Noticed:
1. All photos from various folders (e.g. Facebook, Snapchat , Downloads, etc.) appear under the “Camera” folder.
2. Several folders are missing entirely in the Gallery app, even though they exist in the internal storage and contain photos.
3. Media from apps like WhatsApp and Telegram does not show up as separate albums/folders.
4. .nomedia files have been checked and removed where applicable.
5. Clearing cache/data, resetting the Gallery app, rescanning media, and trying all known troubleshooting steps have not resolved the issue.
6. Alternative gallery apps like Google Photos and Simple Gallery show all folders correctly — so the issue is exclusive to the Nothing Gallery app.

Troubleshooting Already Tried (Unsuccessfully):
Cleared cache and data of Gallery app
Checked for .nomedia files and removed them
Rescanned media using third-party tools
Verified file structure using File Manager
Ensured media visibility is enabled in apps like WhatsApp
Tested using other gallery apps (which work fine)
---
Conclusion & Request:
This issue clearly appears to be a bug or major design flaw in the Nothing Gallery app itself. It seriously affects daily usability and media organization.
I kindly request the Nothing software team to investigate and release a fix in an upcoming update. Many users seem to face similar issues, and we need this addressed urgently.

✅ Suggested Fixes:
Properly index folders with media files (not just the DCIM/Camera path)
Respect .nomedia visibility settings
Restore standard Android behavior for folder-based media classification
