Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by tracing the existing multi-file selection flow and gesture handling in the Android app, then compare it with the requested Gallery-style hold-and-swipe behavior. Done means defining and implementing the interaction for left, right, up, and down swipes with consistent multi-selection behavior.
