## What is Locked Album?

Locked Album: Private Photos is a simple private album for keeping important photos protected on your device.

Photos saved in the app are kept in the app private storage and protected by an app-specific password. Face ID / Touch ID can be used as a convenient unlock option after the password has been created.

Key features:

- Password-protected private album
- On-device storage for imported photos
- Optional failed-unlock capture
- Optional camera-style cover screen
- Export protected photos back to the Photos app
- Paid alternate app icons
- In-App Purchases for ad removal, more storage, and unlimited storage

Failed-unlock capture is off by default. It only runs if the device owner explicitly enables it in Settings and grants camera permission. Capture history is encrypted on device and can be viewed, exported, or deleted from Settings after unlocking the app.

The camera-style cover screen can also be turned off. It looks and behaves like a simple camera screen for normal photo capture, while the protected album button opens the real lock screen.

Protected photos, failed-unlock capture images, and the app password record are not uploaded to the developer server.
