    You should create a drawable to fit exactly a ImageView (img) sizes. If you open a large image (like photo) and set it as a drawable to ImageView it’s required a lot of memory.

    Just create a bitmap with really target sizes like this

    BitmapFactory.Options opts = new BitmapFactory.Options();
//The max size of any dimension (height or width) is 400 px
opts.inSampleSize = originalSize / 400;
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeFile(imagePath, opts);
img.setImageBitmap(bmp);
img.recycle();
