Time needed
4 taps
Needs iOS 18 or later

Works for Secret Photo Album 1Locker whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold Secret Photo Album 1Locker's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Secret Photo Album 1Locker 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 Secret Photo Album 1Locker with Face ID

  1. Find Secret Photo Album 1Locker 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. Secret Photo Album 1Locker now asks for authentication every time it opens.

To test it, close Secret Photo Album 1Locker from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.

Hide Secret Photo Album 1Locker in App Library

  1. Touch and hold Secret Photo Album 1Locker'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 Secret Photo Album 1Locker?

Secret Photo Album 1Locker is a photo vault, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. A photo vault holds the pictures you least want seen, so the questions that matter are where the files live, whether they are encrypted, and what happens if you forget the PIN or change phones.

Utilities range from calculators to VPNs, so their labels vary more than any other category. A simple tool that collects identifiers and usage data for tracking is a sign of advertising SDKs.

A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what Secret Photo Album 1Locker sends to its developer; for that, see Secret Photo Album 1Locker's full privacy report.

What the lock does and does not do

It does

  • Ask for Face ID, Touch ID or passcode every time Secret Photo Album 1Locker opens
  • Hide message previews in notifications

It does not

  • Stop someone who knows your passcode
  • Encrypt or change how Secret Photo Album 1Locker stores data

Don't see Require Face ID?

  • Update to iOS 18 or later in Settings › General › Software Update.
  • Make sure a passcode is set in Settings › Face ID & Passcode; the lock needs one.

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

Other settings worth checking for Secret Photo Album 1Locker

  1. Tracking

    Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking. If “Allow Apps to Request to Track” is off, apps cannot ask, and they are told to treat you as having declined. You can also turn it off for this app alone.

  2. Photos

    Settings › Privacy & Security › Photos. Limited Access lets you pick exactly which pictures the app can see; Add Photos Only lets it save without reading your library.

  3. Sign-in

    When creating an account, Sign in with Apple can give the app a relay address from Hide My Email instead of your real one.

  4. Notifications

    Settings › Notifications › Secret Photo Album 1Locker › Show Previews: When Unlocked keeps message and account details off the Lock Screen.

FAQ

Does Secret Photo Album 1Locker 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 Secret Photo Album 1Locker does; the iOS 18 lock works regardless.
What happens to Secret Photo Album 1Locker'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 Secret Photo Album 1Locker 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 Secret Photo Album 1Locker 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.
