About Koko
Koko is KDE's image gallery application, designed to work on both desktop Linux and Linux phones. It presents photos as albums, supports a full-screen view and slideshows, and offers simple image edits with a confirmation step before changes are discarded.
It follows the KDE Gear release schedule, with regular updates, and can be installed through Discover, Flathub or a distribution's package manager. It suits Plasma users who want a gallery-style view of their pictures rather than a file-by-file viewer.
