But in any case, it is an ideal way to start our article with it, although it is a method.not safe" Little! This is where the pictures actually disappear from all over the Photos app, but they are clustered together in an album called “Hidden” and of course the name of the folder alone pays anyone to open it 🤣

This method is directly useful for eliminating the appearance of images from various Photos application elements, including Moments Years, Collections and other lists that the Photos application makes specifically for you, but this method does not allow you to add a password to protect the album.

In order to hide the pictures and videos directly inside the Photos application, you must choose the image and then click on the Share icon, and then you will find the Hide or Hide option under the options, and of course you have to click on this option, and the hidden pictures and videos will be collected in the Hidden folder or hidden pictures as We mentioned above.
