Private photo vault app for iPhone
Put Private Photos Behind a Separate Locked Vault
Hide Photo is for iPhone users who want a separate private vault rather than only moving items into the Photos app's Hidden album. Import the media, verify the vault copy, protect access, and only then decide what to remove from the regular library.

Your first session
Start with one useful task
- 01
Set up the lock first
Choose a vault passcode and check the available biometric and auto-lock controls. Understand how to regain access before importing irreplaceable media.
- 02
Import a small test set
Open the imported photo or video in the vault and confirm that it plays or displays correctly. Importing a copy does not automatically remove the original from every library or backup.
- 03
Decide what to keep elsewhere
Only consider removing an original after checking the vault copy and your recovery plan. Review synced devices and backups separately if your goal is to reduce where copies exist.
Choose for your needs
When Hide Photo fits
You want separate private albums inside an app with its own lock and organization. Hide Photo adds an encrypted in-app vault alongside your regular Photos library.
When another option may help
If you only need to hide a few items inside Photos, Apple's locked Hidden album may be enough. If you need cloud recovery or shared-device access, verify the backup model first instead of assuming a local vault includes either feature.
Before you download
A few practical details for your first session.
Check imported files before removing originals, and keep an independent recovery plan for irreplaceable media. Review synced devices and backups separately.

Questions about Hide Photo
How is Hide Photo different from Apple's Hidden album?
Apple's Hidden album adds protection inside Photos. Hide Photo creates a separate in-app vault with its own albums and privacy controls.
Does Hide Photo upload my vault to a server?
The product is designed for encrypted on-device storage and does not require a Hide Photo account or automatic server upload.
Should I delete the original after importing it?
Only after you open and verify the vault copy. Keep a recovery plan for anything you cannot afford to lose.
Where can I download Hide Photo?
Hide Photo is available for iPhone on the App Store.
Can Hide Photo organize private videos as well as photos?
Hide Photo supports importing photos, videos and Live Photos into private albums. Open a small test set in the vault to check the imported copies before moving more media.
Does importing delete photos from iCloud or other devices?
Importing creates a vault copy. Review the original Photos library, synced devices and backups separately. Verify the vault copy and recovery plan before deleting anything.
