Edit photos on Onedrive on Android

Anonymous

On my android phone and tablet I have OneDrive synced to my PC (Win 10).

I can view my photos in OneDrive on the android devices but there is no option to do simple editing (crop etc).

When I select 'open in another app'  and select, for example Photos (Google), it does not present any of the editing options.

Is there a reason for this ( formating differences etc) and is there a way to do this ? a different app perhaps or should Microsft need to include this feature in OneDrive.

I do not want to have to transfer every photo to a different App, edit and transfer back. I want to be able to ope from Onedrive, edit and save there.

Any help or suggestions welcome.

    Hi Splinter74,

    I'm Nik, an independent advisor here to assist you with this.

    Thanks for participating in community forum.

    You’re right, as of today, OneDrive only allows to store files and folders but doesn’t support photo editing tools. Furthermore, I couldn’t find a third-party tool that OneDrive integrate to allow photo editing.

    This is indeed a good feature to be considered by the developer team.
    I invite you to submit a feature request or suggestions for improvements to the OneNote developer team here:

    Thanks for understanding and participation in product improvement!

    Regards
    Nik

    Hi Nik,  thanks for your prompt and helpful response.

    Based on your information I can work round that meantime.

    I am new to this forum and would like this feature added but can I query why I should contact the OneNote developers rather than someone to do with OneDrive ?

    Thanks
