Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When reopening the app or refreshing the page, the image viewer does not remember the last seen image. This makes it inconvenient to resume viewing, especially when browsing through a large number of images. Users must manually locate where they left off, which can be time-consuming and frustrating.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implement a feature that saves the last viewed image's position and automatically resumes from that point when the app is reopened or refreshed. This could be achieved using local storage or a session-based approach to ensure continuity in the viewing experience.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Bookmarking the last viewed image manually, but this requires extra effort from the user.
  • Implementing a "Recently Viewed" section, but it does not solve the issue of resuming exactly where the user left off.

Additional context
This feature would improve user experience by providing seamless navigation, particularly for users who frequently browse large image sets. A simple indicator or "Resume from Last Viewed" button could further enhance usability.

When reopening the app

Unless the app got killed by Android, it should reopen the app as it was. Or do you mean reopening the app after a long time? After a device reboot?

or refreshing the page

What do you call "refreshing the page"?

I would like to resume for the last image whatever i close the app and reopen it, reboot the device or android kill it due to inactivity. If i have a folder with 1000 images and i last saw like the 367 images. I don't want to keep remembering that i have stopped at image 367

What do you call "refreshing the page"?

By refreshing, i mean the app reloading after android killed it due to inactivity

I would like something like the comic screen app Image
