Easier way to view photos
Right now I have a folder in my Files tab with a bunch of photos. The only way to view those photos is to open the folder in sharepoint, then view each photo one by one. I can at least easily click from one to the next, however if I'm trying to find a specific photo, I just have to click through one by one until I find it. Ideally I'd like a tab in Teams that is specifically for photo viewing. Similar to a phone, or a folder on my desktop, I'd like to easily jump between viewing thumbnails, which helps you locate a specific photo faster, and just scrolling through all photos one by one.

Such a basic capability and it isn't one. Get with the program, MS. Ain't nobody got time for this.

Team viewer guys - this is a wake up call for you!
Please fix this issue, thanksss!
At least provide us the option to scroll between photos without going back to the previous screen every time.and you know what would be the best? just let us the option to mark "select all" --> "Save in camera Roll"! we will know how to handle things from there!
Thankssss.. and pleaseee do it soon 🙏 -

MS Teams... hellllllllllo!!! Why, why, why??? Multiple comments, multiple users, multiple years, and still yet no resolution to such a need for Teams clients to be able to stay w/in a folder to 'arrow' left or right, up or down, WHATEVER!!! just to go to next image w/in that folder,,, instead of having to go all the way back out,,, and then back into that same folder? Totally ridiculous!

This is a very much needed capability in the legal profession also. Please allow us to view either multiple photos at once or at lease easily move from one photo to the next in the same folder.

Still a problem three years later. This is a very much needed capability in the legal profession also. Please allow us to view either multiple photos at once or at lease easily move from one photo to the next in the same folder.

How about browsing between images in the folder by just clicking left/right? I receive tons of photos every day from my colleagues and i have to open one pic, then close it, open another pic, and so on. It is completely inconvenient.

I am a Manager in a Data Center environment and I take photos of all my assets so that I can review at any time. I like to be able to hold all my documentation in Teams and them manage my assets all in one place, but the problem is viewing photos...
I have to leave the Teams environment in order to show a Backwards and Forwards arrow so I can scroll through the photos. Frustrating and unhelpful. A good photo viewer app in Teams is a must please!!! -

Now we use "Open in SharePoint" -> in SharePoint we have easy picture scrolling and thumbnails. But we like to stay in the Teams client. Any idea when the Teams client will be picture friendly?

Moreover, browsing folder with mobile app, it's a good idea adding thumbnails or low resolutions images in order to improve performance an usability. -

Agreed! When you upload photos they don't stay in the order uploaded - and not by title. all scrambled. Then you have no previews for photos and you have to click on each photo to see it? Then you cannot scroll and view the entire folder but have to click on each one? Not helpful
