If you want to lock or secure photos on your iPhone, you can use a few built-in features or third-party apps for added protection. Here are a couple of methods:

Method 1: Use the Hidden Album (iOS 14 and later):

  1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone.
  2. Find the photo you want to hide or lock.
  3. Select the photo, and then tap the share icon (box with an arrow pointing upward).
  4. Scroll down and select “Hide.”

This will move the photo to the “Hidden” album.

To access the Hidden album:

  1. Open the Photos app.
  2. Tap on your profile picture in the top right corner.
  3. Scroll down and select “Hidden.”

Note: While this is a convenient way to hide photos, it’s not a foolproof security measure. Anyone who knows how to access the Hidden album can see the photos.

Method 2: Use Third-Party Apps:

There are several apps available on the App Store that allow you to lock or hide photos behind a passcode or Face/Touch ID. Some popular apps for this purpose include:

  1. KeepSafe Photo Vault:
    • Install the app from the App Store.
    • Set up a PIN or use Touch ID/Face ID for security.
    • Import photos into the app.
  2. Private Photo Vault:
    • Download and install the app.
    • Create a PIN or password.
    • Move your photos into the app.
  3. Secret Photo Vault – Keepsafe:
    • Install the app.
    • Set up a PIN, password, or use Touch ID/Face ID.
    • Import photos into the app.
