Samsung Galaxy S6 Disappeared picture in gallery

It may occur on the Samsung Galaxy S6 that a picture you have taken with your smartphone, can no longer be found in the Android gallery, although this is definitely saved on the memory. The reason is the Android Gallery app, which does not display for some reason certain images. That is why we recommend the following if your Android Gallery cannot find a picture.

  1. Restart Samsung Galaxy S6

First start with a reboot of your device. The media scanner of Android starts to search for new images on every reboot, which usually leads in that the lost image reappears in your gallery app. If that does not help, test the following:

  1. Install alternative Gallery app and check if this app scans the image

Install QuickPic on your Samsung Galaxy S6 from the Google Play Store. Open the app and check if it can find the picture on the memory storage of your smartphone. If so, then the error is still located in the Android Gallery.

If this doesn´t help too, then you can finally try a Wipe Cache to solve the problem.
