Swipe right from last photo in gallery loads camera

[blandest]

If I am looking through photos in gallery, either in filmstrip view or whilst zoomed in on each picture I can swipe left or right through them. If I am at the "last" photo and swipe left to right, the camera app loads. Is there any way to stop this? If not, is there any way to make it load my preferred camera app rather than the stock one?

Can't stop it, and I don't think you can change it either. Maybe a completely different gallery app, but I can't recommend any since I use the stock Gallery.

Thank you very much for your quick reply It's only a small thing but am glad to hear I wasn't missing an obvious setting to change it.

Since "Gallery" is combined with the Camera I don't think you can assign a different Camera App.

Are you getting to the gallery by using the gallery app or through the camera app?

I think you must be in the camera photos album (as that is the only album that does that). Try using the grid view as opposed to the filmstrip view. That will at least stop it from going into camera mode when you swipe over. And also get to the gallery through the gallery app, not the phone app.

Many thanks Basscase. I was going there from the camera app so will try going via the Gallery and will also try grid view.
