there is something seriously wrong with gallery, or i did something somehow: now gallery picks up program icons as pictures and displays them in gallery under both tabs: pictures and albums. I have about 8 folders with different themed pics, it shows more than 50, mostly single icons. I think I know what it is but never had anything like that on my older phone.

How about gallery showing all program icons together with pictures on my phone? I suspect it has something to do with "no media" marker but never seen anything like that on any of my older phones. And the idea of throwing all pictures together and showing them in date order somehow doesn't make any sense to me, I mean there is probably very good reason pictures are in different folders and by default camera uses date as name, so they're sorted by date already, even if shown in alphabetical order.

its the same. like dkb218 said the is linking to the gallery instead of going to the subfolder of the camera. I hope samsung throw a update to this stupid bug. I don't get it man, the s7 have the same cpu is supposed to be more optimized, not worse than the s7

I have the same problem and then some. When I launch my camera and hit the icon to show the pics I've taken it not only also shows what's app pictures along with my taken pictures but it shows screen shots as well.

Here's a screen shot of my camera right now. You can see what shows at the last pic I supposedly took.



I click on it and shows my last screen shot grab.

This is very annoying! I contact Samsung and they didn't do anything. Let's hope for an update, or the 7.0 nougat fix this.

Nothing on this yet, I update it to the green battery update and still the same. The performance boost in v2 with the update is really nice. But this annoying thing is crazy

I had this problem on Verizon note 2, it ended up being the generic 256gig micro sd card I was using. I put in my 32 gig sandisk and the gallery was fine, it also worked with my 128gig SanDisk.

Is the Issue Resolved?

I just faced the same issue on my older device, S7 edge. Photos from the gallery are mixing up in the camera roll. Please advise if this issue has been resolved? :confused:
