function add_posts($connect) {

        $imgname = $_FILES["ft_img"]["name"];
        $imgtype = $_FILES["ft_img"]["type"];
        $imgtemp = $_FILES["ft_img"]["tmp_name"];

        echo $path = "./img/featured/".$imgname;

        $title   = $_POST["descrip"];
        $descrip   = mysqli_real_escape_string($connect, $_POST["descrip"]);
        $android   = $_POST["android"];
        $iphone    = $_POST["iphone"];
        $cbtn_text = $_POST["cbtn_text"];
        $cbtn_url  = $_POST["cbtn_url"];

        move_uploaded_file($imgtemp, $path);

        for($i = 0; $i < 20; $i++){
            if(isset($_POST["gallery_img$i"])) {
                $imggall = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["name"];
                $imgtype = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["type"];
                $imgtemp = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["tmp_name"];

                echo $path = "./img/gallery/".$imgname;

                move_uploaded_file($imgtemp, $path);
                mysqli_query($connection, "INSERT INTO gallery (image) VALUES ('$imggall')");
            }
        }   

        $query_insert = "INSERT INTO posts(title, description, button1_text, button1_url, button2_text, button3_text, f_img) VALUES ('$title', '$descrip', '$cbtn_text', '$cbtn_url', '$android', '$iphone')";
        $confirm      = mysqli_query($connect, $query_insert);

        if($confirm) {
            $_SESSION["message"] = "Logo updated successfully"; 
            header("Location: post.php?id=".$_SESSION["id"]);   
        } else {        
            $_SESSION["message"] = "There was some errors please re-enter your information";
            header("Location: post.php?id=".$_SESSION["id"]);
        }
    }

You're looping the $_POST array, instead you have to loop the $_FILES array. Follow the documentation and the comments at this page:

If still in doubt create a dummy upload script and place this:

<?php

    echo "<p>$_POST array:</p>";
    echo "<pre>" . print_r($_POST) . "</pre>";

    echo "<p>$_FILES array:</p>";
    echo "<pre>" . print_r($_FILES) . "</pre>";

so you can see what is generated by your upload form.

I updated my code with a new concept and got this result

Array
(
    [0] => fg_4.jpg
    [1] => fg_5.jpg
)
Array
(
    [0] => fg_4.jpg
    [1] => fg_5.jpg
)

This is my updated code:

function add_posts($connect) {

        $imgname = $_FILES["ft_img"]["name"];
        $imgtype = $_FILES["ft_img"]["type"];
        $imgtemp = $_FILES["ft_img"]["tmp_name"];

        $path = "./img/featured/".$imgname;

        $title   = $_POST["descrip"];
        $descrip   = mysqli_real_escape_string($connect, $_POST["descrip"]);
        $android   = $_POST["android"];
        $iphone    = $_POST["iphone"];
        $cbtn_text = $_POST["cbtn_text"];
        $cbtn_url  = $_POST["cbtn_url"];

        move_uploaded_file($imgtemp, $path);

        $imggall = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["name"];
        $imgtype = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["type"];
        $imgtemp = $_FILES["gallery_img"]["tmp_name"];

        $count = count($imggall);
        for($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++){



                print_r($imggall);
                /*$path = "./img/gallery/".$imggall;
                $len = count($image);
                move_uploaded_file($imgtemp, $path);
                $confirm = mysqli_query($connect, "INSERT INTO gallery (image) VALUES ('$imggall')");*/
        }   
      }
