Matisse is a well-designed Android library for selecting local images and videos from a device's gallery. It supports multiple themes, pluggable image loading engines (Glide, Picasso), custom filters, and configurable selection limits.

Use cases

  • pick images from gallery in an Android app
  • let users select videos to upload
  • build a photo attachment flow in a chat app
  • select multiple photos with a max count limit
  • customize the media picker theme to match app branding
  • filter selectable media by type or size

When to choose

  • you need a polished, customizable media picker UI on Android
  • you want to support both image and video selection with filters
  • you prefer a library that works with Glide or Picasso engines

When to avoid

  • you need a cross-platform (Flutter/React Native) picker
  • you target modern Android storage APIs and need active maintenance
  • you only need a simple single-image pick via system intents
