Samsung Camera: ability to switch gallery, silent mode, shutter animation

[golemus]

Couple of feature request for  Samsung Camera (I am using Galaxy S21fe north europe edition but requests are for all models).

Ability to switch gallery:

- when you press gallery icon in Samsung camera it goes to Samsung gallery. Sometimes some of us have reasons for using different gallery app but going there through home screen is too laborous. Samsung should modify camera app in such way that if you install new gallery and press gallery icon of camera there comes a popup which asks which gallery you want to use (with "use always" option at bottom)

Silent mode:
- in settings there should be option to silence the shutter sound. Most of cameras have this but Samsung does not. Even when you are not in silent mode you might not want a shutter sound.

Shutter animation even when animations are disabled:
- some of us disable all phone animations to get the phone snappier. Unfortunately too often it also disables the shutter animation which is very important feedback that you know that the pic has been taken. So the shutter animation should be implemented differently so that it is not affected by other animation settings.

Setting the "system" volume to 0 turns shutter sounds off.

Some countries like Japan legally must have a shutter sound, so no toggle for it might relate to that.

yes but setting system volume every time to 0 when you are taking pic is too laborous.

And galaxies have different markets anyways with different features. It can be disabled in Japan where law obliges it to be but enabled everywhere else.

(and even in japan you can probably install open camera and remove the shutter sound so it is kind futile to do that on stock camera for as long as user is able to install custom cameras)
