## Gallery View

The gallery view displays a grid of thumbnail images for downloaded photos. Individual thumbnails can be [selected](https://docs.camflite.com/camflite-aurora-intro/software/auterion-mission-control/broken-reference) to view the image in greater detail.&#x20;

The gallery can be scrolled and images re-sized using the normal mechanisms for the ground station operating system (e.g. drag, pinch, etc.). &#x20;

Select (short-press) a thumbnail to open the photo full-screen in the image viewer. Long-press any thumbnail to start multi-image selection in preparation for deleting multiple images.

There are also buttons to open the operating system folders containing photos and videos.
