Description

Describe the bug
Folders with a lot of pictures crash the app. Pictures accessed over SMB Connection crash the app always, regardless of how many pictures in the folder with a message "Connect to a network to download this image".

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. On Android 10, install the app from Google Play
  2. Start the app
  3. Navigate to a folder with lots of pictures
  4. Open any of the pictures.

Expected behavior
Picture opens up in the app or in external gallery app.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

  • Device: Galaxy S10
  • OS: Android 10
  • Rooted: No
  • Version: 3.3.4

Additional context
I used another File Explorer before until I updated to Android 10, and it started doing the same after. That was the reason I gave this a try, but it seems to be a problem with all File Explorers and Android 10.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the crash on Android 10 with a folder containing many pictures and with pictures accessed over an SMB connection. Trace the app's picture-opening flow and compare both cases. Done means pictures open in the app or an external gallery without the reported crash or network-download message.
