Power Apps download content on demand?

Is there a way for Power Apps to download content on demand, eg when a button is pressed?

 

I have a large number of images that are required to be viewed only occasionally for a mobile app, but they must be on the same screen as other content.  I don't want them to be hidden using the visible property and made visible when needed, as this would delay the page load even when they are not required

 

Thanks

    That solution doesn't exactly work for me, but I've adopted the idea you proposed of using a variable to fix the issue.  Thanks for the suggestion

    I don't know any method for that. But, maybe this can help. Add Html Input in the app and you can show as may images as you like through hyperlink. Set a variable inside htmltext like in the picture. OnClick images will be load. On Remove Images will disappear. You can handle HtmlText input's visibility however you like. Since in the beginning there will be no images since variable will be blank. I guess it won't affect page load.
