How to Lock PrivacyExpert Password Manager on iPhone

iOS 18 Face ID lock and Hidden folder · CSIdentity corporation · checked November 2026

Time needed
4 taps
Needs iOS 18 or later

Works for PrivacyExpert Password Manager whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold PrivacyExpert Password Manager's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts PrivacyExpert Password Manager 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 PrivacyExpert Password Manager with Face ID

  1. Find PrivacyExpert Password Manager 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. PrivacyExpert Password Manager now asks for authentication every time it opens.

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

Hide PrivacyExpert Password Manager in App Library

  1. Touch and hold PrivacyExpert Password Manager'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 PrivacyExpert Password Manager?

PrivacyExpert Password Manager is a password manager, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. A password manager holds the keys to every other account. Data collection on the label should be limited to what syncing and billing need, and your vault should be end-to-end encrypted.

Finance apps need identity and financial data to function. Expect Contact Info and Financial Info; compare apps on tracking and third-party advertising instead.

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

FAQ

Does PrivacyExpert Password Manager have its own passcode?
Some apps offer an in-app PIN or biometric lock in their settings. The App Store privacy label does not say whether PrivacyExpert Password Manager does; the iOS 18 lock works regardless.
What happens to PrivacyExpert Password Manager's notifications when it is locked?
Locked and hidden apps do not show message previews or content in notifications, and their content does not appear in Spotlight search or Siri suggestions.
Can someone who knows my passcode open a locked app?
Yes. If Face ID fails, the lock falls back to your device passcode. Keep the passcode private if the lock matters to you.
Is a locked PrivacyExpert Password Manager encrypted?
The lock controls who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change how the app stores or syncs data. Encryption depends on the developer and on your device passcode.
Why can't I see the Require Face ID option?
You need iOS 18 or later. Some Apple apps such as Settings, Calculator, Maps and Camera cannot be locked or hidden.
Does hiding PrivacyExpert Password Manager remove it from my purchase history?
No. Hidden apps still appear in App Store purchases and in Settings › Apps, and Screen Time reports still include them.
