Phone is Moto G Stylus with Android 13. Whenever I launch the built in photos app, it now gives me a nag screen to download a version upgrade. When I click “upgrade”, nothing happens. It’s conceivable that I have network permission disabled for the app. I better check.

Is this a familiar thing? How do I make it stop, either by installing the upgrade or by shutting off the nag screen?

Is there a FOSS photo viewer that anyone recommends instead, that I can install from F-droid? I’m reasonably satisfied with the UI of the Google one. It allows sharing photos, moving them into subfolders, seeing the metadata, and some minor editing, all of which are useful. I don’t care in the slightest about cloud sync or google drive so it’s ok if the replacement app doesn’t have those.
Thanks!
My last moto (g4) was basically stock Android but the current phone had a ton of crap that I deleted or disabled.
well my family has moto g8 plays and some other, newer models. what android version was the g4?
and yeah, stock android does have a lot of useless stuff
The G4 was shipped with Android 6 and there was an OTA upgrade to Android 7. It was a nice phone but it became stupidly slow with modern web bloat, and the software generally became flaky over time. The new phone is a huge improvement despite a few regressions.
