I have a recycler view displaying multiple images\details from a SQL DB. I have tossed a few ideas back and forth about how to best display the images but I've run into a couple issues.
Initially I just took pictures via the phones camera, saved those to the filesdir and then reloaded those into the recycler view when a that page is accessed. However this made navigating the view horrendously slow with just a few images, so I tried to compress them to smaller bitmap formats which works but now I'm converting all images on loading that view meaning users wait ~4-5 seconds for it to convert them all, but at least the recycler view is fast.
What I think I'd like to actually do is convert the images just after taking them and save them in that compressed format so I get the best of both worlds. However I have not been able to figure out how to take the converted bitmap I make and overwrite the ImageURI I generated from taking the picture.
Any advice on how I could accomplish that or possibly better recommendations on how to approach?
