Here’s the Android gallery by the CyanogenMod team

It’s a well documented fact that the stock Android gallery isn’t the most feature-rich out there. Many have resorted to third party apps (like QuickPic and others) and now the CyanogenMod team has entered the conversation with its very own concept of what the gallery on stock Android should look like.

GalleryNext can be installed through the free-for-all community for beta testers, which can download the beta app on Google Play and begin testing. For now features include a gallery with cloud integration (Flickr, Picasa, Google+, Facebook and Dropbox), grouping images by Moments, video playback, GIF support (yay!) and more.

Android KitKat’s immersive mode UI is also on board GalleryNext meaning you can enjoy full-screen viewing without pesky controls. The app should have bugs and wouldn’t be a stranger to crashes as this is its first beta release but the screenshots look promising.
