About

Eye of GNOME is an image viewer designed for the GNOME desktop. It integrates with the GTK look and feel of GNOME, and supports many image formats for viewing single images or images in a collection. It also allows to view the images in a fullscreen slideshow mode or set an image as the desktop wallpaper. It reads the camera tags to automatically rotate your images in the correct portrait or landscape orientation.

Flatpak sandbox
Wide access

Runs in a sandbox, but a broad part of it is open — typical for tools that need to manage your files or system. It shows what the app is able to do, not what it does.
