How to open Gallery from apps in Android

#1

Is it possible to open Gallery apps from a button inside corona’s apps? I want the button to minimize my corona apps, then open Gallery app (and open a specific folder if possible).

I found media.show(), but is now deprecated. (http://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/media/show.html)

Using URL Scheme? I’m targeting to open Gallery apps that is already attached into the device, and each manufacturer might use different package name. I don’t think i can use this. (Or not?)

Is there a way to get this work?

No answer. So i guess this is impossible…

Can you be a bit more descriptive about what you are trying to accomplish?

I have an app where the user can save image into the image gallery. Now i wish to have a button when the user hit it, my app will be minimized (or closed) and open the gallery where the image was saved into.

My goal is to let the users see their saved image in device’s gallery, so they can do anything they want: delete, move it to other folder, share via bluetooth, social media, or whatever.
