## Accessing the Gallery

To access the Gallery from the FlytBase Dashboard:

Click on <img src="https://1675645432-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FTfYUUwVnoRyxqEi8UiRV%2Fuploads%2FnAq2O7mH2OUnUXO1UZQh%2FHamburger%20Menu.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=ff237c5f-7aed-4fcd-8ae0-e25ba83bc64f" alt="" data-size="line"> to open the **Navigation Drawer**
2. Scroll down the list, and click on **Gallery**

## Gallery Layouts

In the **Gallery**, you can view media files in two distinct layouts:

* **Files (default)**: This layout displays all media files. The files are grouped by their unique Flight ID and sorted by the date they were captured. By default, the media is arranged in *reverse chronological order*, i.e., photos and videos from the latest flight are displayed first.
* **Folders**: This layout shows all folders, each corresponding to a unique Flight ID, and arranges them in a reverse chronological order.
