It crashes every time.5 star if I didn’t experience what I mention. Please advise how to fix these folder crashing issues. Thanks ### 4/5 — Love it *2018-04-18, version 2.0* I love this app. However, it could use some more features. I haven’t been able to figure out how to rename an album. It only allows me to delete it or add photos/videos to it. Also, I wish it would show the dates of the photos like the iPhone. I transferred some photos to my secret albums and permanently deleted it from my iPhone album. But when I go to look at the photos, I don’t know when they were taken. ### 4/5 — Sync Across Devices *2017-12-14, version 2.0* The app is great to protect your pictures from prying eyes but needs two features. First when you turn your device sideways the pictures don’t rotate with the screen. Second it needs to sync encrypted pictures across all your devices like iPhone, IPad & ITouch. ### 4/5 — Review *2017-06-16, version 2.0* I think you put a pretty good amount of effort into this, but there is one glitch that if you trigger self destruction and you go back in the app to make a new album your pictures shown before self destruction will re appear in the new album... ### 4/5 — It's pretty good *2016-11-01, version 2.0* It has everything I would really need to make it good, but not being able to select multiple pictures at a time is time consuming. ### 4/5 — simple and safe *2016-08-29, version 2.0* There are not many features to the free version, but it does hide pictures ### 4/5 — Not bad *2016-02-09, version 2.0* It's great as far as discretion but it would be nice to upload more then 1 pic at a time also it makes you put in your password in every time you try to upload a pic. Annoying ### 5/5 — Great *2015-09-09, version 2.0* Great app one of the best apps I have tried for free the fake password option makes this an even better app than expected the only downfall that I give it is that you can only transfer one picture at a time making a time-consuming if you have a lot of pictures ### 5/5 — About the locked albums photos *2015-05-14, version 2.0* I barely have a bunch of photos from my existing album,that I wanna transfer To this one,so how can I do that? ### 4/5 — Thanks *2015-04-26, version 2.0* Nice programs hope more update for this program like change name of the folders we make it before ### 4/5 — My choice *2015-04-19, version 2.0* First off, let me start by saying that I have had the application for a short time, and the only feature that I have really used is for my photo's. I have quite a few other applications on my device. However, I choose the Album Lock over all them. They do NOT have a limit on the number of photos that I want to safely protect. Unlike many others. I know that it is better than any of my other applications in regards to hiding/protecting your photo's and apps. ### 5/5 — Very effective,solid *2015-04-18, version 2.0* Everything works great, simple, effective, and useful. Very pleased overall, little tedious with single photon selection, but easy enough to work with. I love no hidden fees, costs, etc. Extremely happy! ### 5/5 — Private collection must have *2015-04-12, version 2.0* Perfect for the things I don't want others to see by acciden ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The worst *2022-01-17, version 3.1* I lost my photos 😭 ### 1/5 — Keeps Crashing *2021-06-05, version 3.1* I have used this app for a while but no longer will open some folders with lots of photos in them. Support has not responded in months. ### 2/5 — Was a good app until it started crashing *2022-04-16, version 3.1* I liked the app and even payed for the upgraded version but now I have one file that only has 12 picks in it that crashes the app every time I try and open it. Would have been a five star rating but now the photos in that file are lost unless the creator can update the app to fix the problem. ### 3/5 — Album Lock *2020-03-30, version 2.0* They mean Lock alright! I forgot my passcode...there is absolutely no way to speak with anyone or anywhere to set a new one. They need to fix that. I understand that is the purpose so not just anybody can look at your business...but I haven’t been on there for a couple years and want to possibly delete some. ### 3/5 — Free *2019-12-19, version 2.0* Not sure how it is free when it is asking for money to import a photo from my phones camera roll. Am I missing something? I like the features it is advertising but I haven’t been able to use it to rate it yet. ### 3/5 — Kinda lost a little *2016-08-16, version 2.0* I want to add a private document into the documents file but it keeps telling me to add a URL after I name the folder.....I'm not understanding why I have to have a URL when all I want is to add a letter into the file I've created. 😒 so aggravating and confusing. I don't know much about the URL thing and not sure what it is, it is wanting. Yes I know a URL but what do I put???!!! Grrrrr....... ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2016-02-23, version 2.0* I like that I could buy the option to upload multiple photos. Makes it a bunch easier to use than the couple others I tried. But it's started sometimes randomly kicking me off the photo I'm viewing and back to the first one in the album. Irritating, but not a deal breaker for me ### 3/5 — works good but not 5-stars *2015-01-02, version 2.0* works good but two short comings (1) no icon for videos. all you see is a box indicating there is a file. I think at least show a file name will earn a 1/2 star. (2) Only work in portrait mode. Fix these two problems then I'll give it a 5-star. ### 3/5 — Boom! *2014-06-29, version 1.4* This app is awesome! I love the decoy password feature. The only problems I have with it are that you can't select multiple photos, videos, documents, etc. to add at once. You have to add them one at a time. Also, the pictures and other items do not rotate into the landscape format. It stays completely in the portrait format. Other than those two things I love it! ### 3/5 — Good app *2014-04-17, version 1.3* Good app, sometimes force closes for no reason. But other than that it's a great app to hid pictures you don't want people seeing. The decoy pass lock is nice to be able to put in a different pass lock and have pictures that you are okay with them seeing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Updates make this a lot better *2021-01-20, version 3.1* The new update fixed the bugs that made this app annoying. It’s really good now. 99 cents for videos and multiple file uploads is worth it I think. Once they add landscape mode in the app it’ll be perfect. ### 5/5 — One thing about it my pictures are clear not like other Apps *2018-06-07, version 2.0* Great ### 5/5 — Useful app *2018-02-12, version 2.0* Be able t keep your stuff private is always cool and this app helps me a lot! ### 5/5 — Like *2016-12-04, version 2.0* Bought a new iPad open app on it and don't have my photos I think they should transfer to new device right ### 5/5 — Great *2016-11-30, version 2.0* Great app. Works like a charm. Just wish it had the auto delete feature like other apps do. ### 5/5 — Great Privacy *2016-03-07, version 2.0* I have not had it long but it seems to be everything I wanted and needed. Videos would be nice but you can always find something wrong with everything. Looking for privacy get this! ### 5/5 — Good *2016-02-02, version 2.0* good but have to pay for more storage but only 0.99 so less than all the other apps ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2016-01-11, version 2.0* This app is likely the best one I've seen, from the cover down to the features. I'd recommend this app to anyone. ### 5/5 — Review *2015-12-31, version 2.0* This app is amazing I know that I have some pics tht I don't want people seeing and this app help em to Tido that and it is just a blessing an I really love it thanks to whoever created it! ❤ ### 5/5 — Simple to use *2015-12-17, version 2.0* Very easy to use and set up. Gives you good sense of security. You don't get flooded with all kinds of adds, very nice. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
