Hide pictures on iPhone

There are many reasons why you are interested in hiding pictures, maybe they are private pictures and you do not want intruders to see them, or you want to hide pictures so as not to clutter up the main picture library.

In previous versions of iOS prior to iOS 14, you can "hide" photos as well, but not real. Select an image, tap the share button, then tap Hide.

This removes the photo from the main “Camera Roll” and moves it to the other albums section under the name “Hidden”, which of course can be found quickly.

You can unhide by opening "hidden", selecting the image, then the share button, then "unhiding".

With iOS 14-You can hide pictures real from photos app. To do this, open Settings - Photos and turn off the “Hidden” album.

After that, go back to the Photos app and you will notice that you cannot find the hidden album and that your hidden photos are not really there in the photos app.

Although this is an important step in the right direction, there will still be users who want something a little tougher. An understanding intruder can easily access hidden pictures, open settings, and enable show hidden pictures.

Many people demanded Apple a more aggressive way to lock the hidden album, such as locking it with Touch ID or Face ID, so that no one could access it as a second layer of authentication in addition to locking the phone. Unfortunately, this type of protection is not available in the Photos application yet, although it is allowed in the Notes application.

The problem is that if you hid the apps, they would still be on the App Library as much as possible.
In the same App Library method, don't you see the pages !!?

As you mentioned, Apple is unable to add the feature to lock pictures or folders on the camera album with a fingerprint or face print.
If only Apple allowed us to create other folders inside the hidden folder ..

Peace be upon you. I made the latest update of Ios14, but the floating video from Safari, when you click on the signal from the upper left corner, returns again to the video, meaning the floating video process does not complete.
Is there a solution to this problem or is this from an incomplete update? Thank you

You can hide photos with a secret code by moving them to the memo and choosing the lock

A good feature is long overdue. Unfortunately, the pages cannot be arranged. Also, the App Library cannot be canceled if the user does not want to use it.

I thank you for the effort you are making in serving everyone
I want to propose an idea to create an application that blocks country codes and keys.
This is due to the annoying and repeated calls we receive from some countries where we do not have any relatives, acquaintances or friends. Please, whoever knows a programmer who will make this application, may God reward him with all good.

In my opinion, two basic points are supposed to be on the iPhone regarding privacy and security .. the first is to lock the settings icon completely (which is useful especially if you have children because they do not mess with certain settings), the second point and I consider it very necessary is not to close the device except with a secret number so that it limits some device theft in places For example, public and restaurants (although the device will be closed when charging is finished)

    I agree with you, especially on the second point

Really something nice, but it needs to be developed so that if the images are hidden and then re-open them, the system is supposed to ask for a password or Facebook id for more privacy
