About PhotoVault (Hide Pictures)

With Android 6.0 Marshmallow, you might experience a problem that after you enter your password, the app crashes right away. If you run into this, just go to your phone settings, find apps, and then find com.android.PhotoVault and then check if “storage” permission is chosen. Enable that will fix this force close problem.

Update: Lollipop external sd card support. If you have android 5.0 devices, starting up PhotoVault will be prompt to grand permission to write to your sd card. In the browser screen, click menu (three dots on the top right corner), then choose "Show SD Card" (your device might be something different). Then on the top left corner, click the three lines, then choose "SD Card" (your device might be something different). Then click the bottom of the screen "SELECT SD Card". If you have questions regarding how to use this, please contact us (support@pacificsoftwaresolutions.net)

======================================

With PhotoVault, privacy is no longer an issue. You can show your photo gallery to all the friends, family, and strangers on the bus that you want because the embarrassing, the secret, the private photos are all hidden from view, tucked away in your Private gallery. In fact, when in Public mode, those hidden photos aren't even part of your photo gallery--their very existence is hidden. And more than just hidden from other people, they're hidden from other apps.

You can even set PhotoVault itself to open in Public mode, so it appears just like a standard photo gallery to any who might pick up your Android or be looking over your shoulder. Until, that is, you enter the password.

You, of course, have complete access to the photos in your Private gallery. You can manipulate them; share them via e-mail, messaging, Facebook, and other social networks; give a slide show; and more. You can do anything with them that you can with those in the Public gallery. The photos are easily transferred from Public gallery to Private gallery and back again with just a long-click on the photo's thumbnail.

If you ever have any questions on how it all works, there are instructions in the app and links to online support and FAQs. Best yet, the developer is actively working on PhotoVault, adding new features and taking requests.

Never be nervous about the privacy of the photos on your Android again with PhotoVault installed.

After hiding images, fails to rescue/recover most of them if you want to unhide to transfer to a PC, then from PC to a new or resetted device. Video Vault does the same.

I've had this app for years. This is the second or third device I've used it on. It transfers my data automatically. But this time, it locked me. My same passcode that I've always used, doesn't work. Help me out and I'll change this to 5 stars and write a new review!!

One cannot select the presentation order of the photos in slide mode or any other viewing. Also the link to the website for problem resolution errors out in a php process. Files in hidden mode sometimes show up in other photo applications. Thumbnails are dissapearing. All this started with a new Galaxy S7 and an OS upgrade.

In private mode the photos can't be viewed 90% of the time but no worries, after a week or two they just unhide anyway. What a waste of money this was. This software has only continued to get worse. Uninstall it is.

Android 6.0 breaks the hidden pic option. I ended up doing a little troubleshooting. Their method of hiding a pic is to simply add a file extension to the filename. By connecting to laptop and drilling down to the file location, I was able to recover them by copying to laptop & removing the .pss file extension. Rehiding the pic doesn't work so app is useless until they fix this.

by U####:

I really don't know why I pay for it because I can't retrieve any of the photos that I had saved once I got my new phone so I'm really at a total loss. Now it's acting up and I can't put anything into the vault. I'm feeling as though I wasted my money
