Consider two similar images with a slight different. I want to be able to compare them IN FULL SCREEN MODE and delete the worse. Like this is easily available in camera roll (in iPhones). is there any android application that has this feature?
Simply rephrasing: an app in which photos appear and disappear at once when switching, with no transition animation while browsing (just like windows photo viewers). thanks in advance ;-)
 
Just to clarify, are you using the Gallery app or some other photo manager app? Different phone models are set up to use different default apps so specifying just what you're using will help make things less vague.
Have you checked in the settings menu of a app? A lot of them have different options to make changes in the user interface.
And just anecdotally, I just did a quick test using photo manager apps 'Google Photos' and 'Simple Gallery Pro', and file manager apps 'Ghost Commander' and 'Moto File Manager', With all four I would just open a photo and swiping left or right would show the next or previous photo without any animation effects.

No the default gallery app (I'm using oneplus 7T pro) does not have this ability. Even google photos is the same. My problem is exactly that swiping act, which slides current image away and bring in the next one again by sliding in. I need sudden change of photos WITH NO TRANSITION in order to compare changes easily.
Notice the windows photo viewer app as I mentioned and compare it with common apps in smart phones when changing pictures.

F-Stop will do what you want: go into the app's settings, find the "media viewer" settings and tick the box "enable tapping on left/right side". This will then switch to previous/next image with no transition.

Obviously this relies of them being adjacent images in the sequence, but there's no way round that on a small screen device like a phone (especially when you want full screen mode).

(I'm using the paid version, but I don't think this is one of the paid features).

Thanks a lot. problem solved. I've been searching for days and no answer found.
About being adjacent, they all are; because they're actually taken by camera in case one shot is bad (like people blinking or such) or with a change in angle for a scenery.

I have a OnePlus 7 (not T or pro) and one of the first things I did was go out and find a better gallery app, the one that came with the phone is horrible. I'm using simple gallery pro, and have since learned that it's very popular. Not sure if it'll solve all your problems, but a different gallery app is a step in the right direction.

In my case it's default was pretty good. But lacked the ability I asked for which is now solved by f-stop app. BTW I think I've tried simple gallery and it doesn't have this possibility.

Oh it does, see attached:
Anyway, if you found something else, it's a moot point. :)
