I am trying to use Android gallery to pick image. Launching gallery is easy for that purpose
Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
photoPickerIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, 1);
However, I need to limit images that are shown in the gallery to specific path on device (i.e. to show images from single folder only). Is this possible to do and how?
Sorry, no this is not possible.
Also you are using this Intent protocol wrong. As per http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html#ACTION_PICK this protocol expects that you put the content: URI of the data set you want the picker to select from.
That said, you should consider
ACTION_PICKdeprecated. The modern action isACTION_GET_CONTENTwhich is much better supported; you will find support ofACTION_PICKspotty and inconsistent. Unfortunately,ACTION_GET_CONTENTalso does not let you specify a directory.
