If someone ever looks at the pictures on my phone

They might think I’m obsessed with something.

It’s just an app. You can send photo there, delete them off your phone and are passcode protected.

I used that one before, but This app is wayyyy better. It hides the app icon from being found, has a secondary calculator app to enter password, or… if you want to go completely hidden, there’s a way to punch password as if your making a phone call.

IMPORTANT to the conversation.

Be careful with things on your phone if you are concerned about law enforcement viewing them. I did some legal consulting for a defense case back in 2018. A big part of the case were data on the accuser’s phones (we won the case based on that data.) Law enforcement used a piece of software called Cellebrite that grabs virtually all files on a phone for viewing, password protected or not. Passwords on files and file locations become irrelevant and Cellebrite will still grab and display the files.

Password protection will protect you from people snooping where they shouldn’t be, but law enforcement has a way around it.

Also, deleted files don’t actually get deleted and Cellebrite also retrieves deleted files. When you delete a file, it is not actually deleted. What happens is that the file system dissociates the file and the file is no longer indexed. Until those memory locations get overwritten by another file they will remain on your phone.

Law enforcement cannot take your phone. It requires a warrant based on probable cause.

Funny thing the other day I was in a head shop picking up something for my wife. I have a surface duo 2 phone that has 2 screens that fold open like a book. Not thinking I had the Pic on my right screen to see what it was I was picking up. Well my gallery is shown on left side… Needless to say it is ALL photos of my plants. The lady was like oh growing pot I see. I was like Wtf how she know then I saw it. Luckily it was in the one place people wouldn’t care but now I lock my photos in a separate folder just in case.

iPhone now allows you to add a password to your hidden pictures file. I’m a field foreman at work so I had to hide mine after a few times of accidentally showing my super intendant my plants as I try to show him a picture of what we are dealing with at work :eyes:

I phone has a hidden folder and deleted pictures folder as well. Don’t forget just cause you deleted pics out of your main album doesn’t mean they are off your phone.

@Jspeach well if you delete them they will stay in trash for 21 days then automatically start deleting for good from oldest to newest order they made it into the trash bin.

Once they are added to the hidden album that is the only album you can view any hidden pictures.

For those of you who don’t have this feature they have apps that look like a calculator and when you type a pre selected pin then it automatically takes you to a hidden album file. But say someone opens that app and tries to use it as a regular calculator, it will do the math as of it were only a calculator.
