### 3/5 — Oops! Update Woes!

*2021-01-04, version 3.0*

This wonderful app has functioned flawlessly for 2 years for me. But, with the update (December 2020), a few things happened:

I can no longer add photos.
The app crashes *often* - screen rotations never worked, but now they try... and crash the app.

Staral...is this fixable, please?

### 3/5 — Great if I can make it work...

*2018-10-06, version 2.0*

I program for a living and this app is a bit confusing. I am not able to register and my app or get any of my videos to show up in their folders. If someone could point me in the right direction I’d be happy to change my review.

### 4/5 — The best hide app

*2018-01-24, version 2.0*

Best app for hiding private pics

### 4/5 — Well Done!

*2017-04-27, version 2.0*

Great app to keep your photos organized & away from those who want to finger scroll your personal pics. Only wish it would rotate when you flip your device. Great job!

### 4/5 — Great App

*2017-01-25, version 2.0*

This app is very simple to use. I really like that you can set up a decoy password and can also export photos from the app.  A couple improvements and it would be a 5 star app.  Fix the duplicating of photos when uploading and the empty space in between photos when one has been deleted.

### 4/5 — Cool app!

*2016-09-04, version 2.0*

It's okay It's cool! Just a little fix i guess coz it crushes sometimes😁

### 3/5 — Mr

*2016-07-07, version 2.0*

I love this app to start off with but among some of the other problems there should be a select all option in it for when you have to get a new phone and you want to take all your stored pics back off of it so you don't loose them. 50,000 taps to get all your pics gets old after the first 10,000. But I still love this app.

### 4/5 — Very happppppy

*2015-07-13, version 2.0*

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2015-05-03, version 2.0*

So far this app seems to do exactly what its suppose to do it seems to create doubles of a single import if u try to select more then one image or video other then that it seems like a great app

### 4/5 — Happy to found

*2015-03-25, version 2.0*

This works great so far, I'm able to file and keep secure my docs and photos. I can feel secure when handing over my phone to colleagues for review.

### 3/5 — Good app but can be great

*2015-01-09, version 2.0*

Can earn one more star each after fixing the following problems
(1)Need thumb nail for video files. At least show file names (2) show video in landscape mode

### 1/5 — The worst app

*2019-05-24, version 2.0*

### 1/5 — No update in 4 years — photos and camera inoperable

*2019-04-28, version 2.0*

Nothing works. Save your $2

### 1/5 — Started malfunctioning. No support response.

*2019-04-23, version 2.0*

This app was great for a long time BUT now it’s horrible. It won’t upload pics from album and the export to album feature sends the pictures to nowhere. It never has updates and is working off a version from 4 years ago.

### 1/5 — Jasmine

### 1/5 — Keep chrashing

The pro version does not work on the big ipad pro. Keeps crashing

### 1/5 — baaaaaaad

*2015-05-18, version 2.0*

so baaaaaad no app

### 1/5 — Poorest app

*2013-12-16, version 1.2*

You can use decoy password to see your real album as well,big problem! No update for a long time! Poorest app ever bought!

### 2/5 — Good but not perfect

*2019-11-14, version 2.0*

Update: Update. Still has old issues, and lack of organization. I have no idea if this is a new bug, as I haven’t used this app in a long time. But with iOS 13.2.2, when importing pictures, they show up as thumbnails in whatever folder you put them in. But when you actually want to see the picture, it is just a black screen. Pictures do not load. And you can’t scroll or do anything. Deleting pictures and reimporting doesn’t work. Can’t view any photos I import

Update: it appears blank spaces from where deleted images once were, is now fixed. I can permanently get rid of that file. Hoping next iOS update, will get developer to add organizing files. Then this would be a five app

The main issue is when importing from your photo album. If you select multiple images, it often duplicates an image, instead of importing two separate images. So you have to audit your import each time. If you delete those duplicates, half the time, you end up with a blank space where that delete took place. And you can't remove it. Also exporting is not in a logical place. I've lowered the rating a star. I'm now finding a lot of recently saved photos that are in my Photos app, are not recognized by Album Lock. I can't see them so I can't import them. I hope some day, the developer adds the ability to change the order of folders, the main ways being alphabetical in descending and ascending.Organizing folders would add a star. Being able to remove space of deleted image would raise it to a full five stars.

### 2/5 — Needs more testing and/or clearer directions

*2018-04-28, version 2.0*

Why can’t it sync between my iPhone and iPad?   What is meant by a “decoy password”?    I paid for the upgrade version and see no difference, so that was a waste. 

  That system of transferring photos via iTunes on a desktop computer is lost on me.   I can’t get the transfers to work.  I was wondering whether you tested it with users of different levels of computer skills.  

I’m 68, a long-time computer and smart phone user.

### 2/5 — Not working correctly

*2016-09-22, version 2.0*

Paid for the pro version but the are features that don't work. Cannot email for help or support and cannot share my photos from the app via email.
