How to Select Multiple Images from Android Gallery Separately

Selecting images from the Android gallery can be a bit tricky, especially when you want to implement the flexibility of choosing different images for different ImageViews in your app. In this guide, we’ll explore how to accomplish this by providing you with a step-by-step guide and example code.

The Problem

In many Android applications, it's common to allow users to upload images from their gallery. However, a specific requirement arises when you want users to select separate images for different ImageViews in your app. For example, if a user clicks on ImageView_1, they should be able to select one image, and if they click on ImageView_2, they should select another image without affecting the first selection. This capability is essential for applications like photo galleries, social media apps, or any app where multiple distinct images are required.

The Solution

To implement this functionality, we will break down the solution into clear sections:

1. Dependencies

First, ensure that you have the following dependency included in your build.gradle file:

5. Putting It All Together

With these methods combined, your activity can now allow users to select multiple images separately for different ImageViews. When a user clicks on a specific ImageView, they will open the gallery and can choose an image, while the application retains the previous selections made for other ImageViews.

Conclusion

Implementing separate image selection for different views enhances the user experience in any image-based Android application. By following the steps outlined above, you can effectively achieve this functionality in your app. Feel free to explore further modifications and customize the behavior according to your application's requirements.
