PHApplication Overview
Utiful is a standalone photo filing system designed to move photos out of the primary Android camera roll and organize them into separate folders. Unlike standard gallery applications that use virtual albums, Utiful physically removes organized images from the main gallery to maintain a clutter-free camera roll while preserving the sorted files in dedicated directories.Technical Specifications
