iOS 18 Face ID lock and Hidden folder · Mobile Video Solutions CJSS · checked November 2026

Time needed
4 taps
Needs iOS 18 or later

Works for Video Surveillance Ivideon whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold Video Surveillance Ivideon's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Video Surveillance Ivideon 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 Video Surveillance Ivideon with Face ID

  1. Find Video Surveillance Ivideon 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. Video Surveillance Ivideon now asks for authentication every time it opens.

To test it, close Video Surveillance Ivideon from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.

Hide Video Surveillance Ivideon in App Library

  1. Touch and hold Video Surveillance Ivideon'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 Video Surveillance Ivideon?

Video Surveillance Ivideon is a security camera app, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. Security camera apps stream video from inside and around your home. Cloud recording, sharing with household members and law-enforcement request policies all matter.

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 Video Surveillance Ivideon sends to its developer; for that, see Video Surveillance Ivideon's full privacy report.

What the lock does and does not do

It does

  • Ask for Face ID, Touch ID or passcode every time Video Surveillance Ivideon opens
  • Hide message previews in notifications
  • Keep Video Surveillance Ivideon's content out of Spotlight and Siri suggestions
  • With Hide, remove the icon from the Home Screen

It does not

  • Stop someone who knows your passcode
  • Encrypt or change how Video Surveillance Ivideon stores data
  • Sync to your iPad or other devices
  • Remove Video Surveillance Ivideon from purchase history or Screen Time reports

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.
  • Some Apple apps (Settings, Calculator, Camera, Maps, Find My, Clock) cannot be locked or hidden.
  • If your iPhone is managed by work or school, the option may be restricted.

Other settings worth checking for Video Surveillance Ivideon

  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. Microphone & camera

    Settings › Privacy & Security › Microphone and Camera. The orange and green dots in the status bar show when either is in use.

  4. Notifications

    Settings › Notifications › Video Surveillance Ivideon › Show Previews: When Unlocked keeps message and account details off the Lock Screen.

FAQ

Does Video Surveillance Ivideon 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 Video Surveillance Ivideon does; the iOS 18 lock works regardless.
What happens to Video Surveillance Ivideon'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 Video Surveillance Ivideon 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 Video Surveillance Ivideon 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.
