Gwenview

What Gwenview is

Gwenview is a free Linux application for browsing and displaying image collections. It also provides editing tools to rotate, crop, resize, mirror, or flip images, reduce red eye, and adjust brightness, contrast, or gamma. For annotations, it can add arrows, shapes, text boxes, and image stamps. Basic file actions let users copy, move, and delete images.

KDE extensions connect KIO-aware apps such as Gwenview to Google Drive files and Amazon S3 buckets and objects. KIPI Plugins add image export destinations including MediaWiki, Facebook, and a local album. Other listed capabilities include side-by-side comparison, color management, and metadata viewing. Gwenview is licensed under GPL-2.0+ and is listed for Linux. KDE provides installation through AppStream stores or a distribution’s package manager and links to Flathub. Help and issue reporting are available through the handbook, community forum, and bug reporting page. KDE says its software generally does not transfer information from users’ devices except after explicit user action; any telemetry, where present, is opt-in and disabled by default.
