Needs iOS 18 or later

Works for Photo Album Manager Pic ORG whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold Photo Album Manager Pic ORG's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Photo Album Manager Pic ORG behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode; choose Hide and Require Face ID instead to move it into App Library's Hidden folder as well.

Lock Photo Album Manager Pic ORG with Face ID

  1. Find Photo Album Manager Pic ORG on your Home Screen or in App Library.
  2. Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
  3. Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
  4. Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. Photo Album Manager Pic ORG now asks for authentication every time it opens.

To test it, close Photo Album Manager Pic ORG from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.

Hide Photo Album Manager Pic ORG in App Library

  1. Touch and hold Photo Album Manager Pic ORG's icon and tap Require Face ID.
  2. Choose Hide and Require Face ID instead of Require Face ID.
  3. Confirm. The icon leaves your Home Screen and moves to the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library.
  4. To open it later, swipe to App Library, tap Hidden and authenticate.

Hiding also locks the app. To undo either, touch and hold the icon again and choose Don't Require Face ID.

Why lock Photo Album Manager Pic ORG?

Photo Album Manager Pic ORG is a photo manager, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. Photo managers usually ask for full library access. That gives them every picture, along with its location and date metadata.

Photo and video apps usually request access to your photo library. iOS lets you share only selected photos, which keeps the rest of the library — and its location metadata — away from the app.

A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what Photo Album Manager Pic ORG sends to its developer; for that, see Photo Album Manager Pic ORG's full privacy report.

What the lock does and does not do

It does

  • Ask for Face ID, Touch ID or passcode every time Photo Album Manager Pic ORG opens

It does not

  • Stop someone who knows your passcode

Don't see Require Face ID?

  • If your iPhone is managed by work or school, the option may be restricted.

Other settings worth checking for Photo Album Manager Pic ORG
