Okay, so here's the sitch... I banged up my phone yesterday evening while at work. I had been running the Moto G4 (not the Plus), on Marshmallow, with Nova Launcher Prime and had been using a copy of QuickPic passed along to me (the last version before Cheetah Mobile bought them out). All was good and very stable. But then my G4 met the side of a granite table gouging the phone and damaging the power button so that it became stuck and started an endless loop (had to dig it out with a pair of tweezers to get it to stop).
Because I had purchased a protection plan when I had originally purchased it, I took it back to the store and after a bit they gave me the G5. Apparently Moto isn't making the G4 in the thirty-two gigabyte capacity so after fruitlessly searching their inventory and the inventory of other stores, rather than downgrade me to sixteen gigabyte they just upgraded me to the G5 (yeah me!)... Got home, got to rebuilding my device and all is well with the exception of QuickPic. I installed the copy that had been passed to me, I saved it on my SD card, and it runs well, doing all the things that QuickPic is supposed to do. However when you leave QuickPic is pops up saying that QuickPic has stopped and sometimes it just quits all together. I've tried to download and install the version on the Play Store now branded with Cheetah Mobile and it does the same thing. I ALSO have a copy of the apk on my laptop and thought maybe perhaps the program had become corrupted (it was a nasty fall my G4 took), so I copied over the apk, installed it, it runs and then it has the same issue...
QuickPic runs. It does all that it's supposed to do. It's just a annoyance that this is happening. I'm not above using another gallery app (so speak up if you care to, but it must be able to also hide photos), I'm sure there are several good ones out there and I don't HAVE to use QuickPic. It's just that I've used it for years and so I know it well is all. Advice?
