You can use ImageView which will scroll in horizontally on swipe.For the swipe you can use onFling() method where you can handle left and right swipe.Read this post for gesture detection. Good luck

You may want to use a custom horizontal listview (by Paul Soucy from dev-smart.com) https://github.com/vieux/Android-Horizontal-ListView

this one is good enough if you don't need the center-locking feature of the gallery widget – julian Oct 31 '12 at 08:36
Thank you for the answer! I eventually decided to use gallery widget because i needed the center-locking feature. (I just don't really understand what are the results of using something that is deprecated) – user1787773 Nov 01 '12 at 08:50

The link appears to be broken. – Peter Mortensen Mar 28 '13 at 13:49

Use DevsmartLib-Android. Also, if you don't care about the flinging, you can use ViewPager.
