What are some good encrypted gallery android apps?

Currently using Stingle Photos. While it has a solid encryption its too basic in terms of gallery features. I just have basic single level folders currently and its very hard to manage the photos like that.

What are your suggestions for a good gallery app that is encryption/security oriented but also has good gallery features. Particularly nested folders, some sort or easy search function. If it has tagging it would be excellent.

I dont use sync or cloud features nor do I use GPhotos so such functionality does matter to me.

You could use Insular to quarantine your untrusted apps into their own profile (different permissions, file directory etc) and then transfer the individual photos to the "work" profile to access them with whatsapp.

It is solution but not very convenient. You need to transfer photos to another profile, system-wide VPN is not active in another profile.
