### 4/5 — T-gate

*2013-01-07, version 2.1*

A good app but font needs options to go bigger and there needs to be a way to put in alphabetical order

### 4/5 — need to edit photos!!

*2012-09-06, version 1.0.1*

decent program but you can't edit /delete specific photos without wiping out all data, this is pretty frustrating, just add the garbage bin already!! add this and get more stars for sure.
UPDATE: you can, figured it out, so now  4 stars

### 5/5 — private citizen

*2012-08-26, version 1.0.1*

Your app is terrifying!!! 
What if a guy has Anzeimer... or something short of it. Old foggies have them you know.

### 5/5 — greatest app

*2012-08-18, version 1.0*

Finnaly found an app that gives you full privacy, satisfaction. Thank you keep up.

### 5/5 — What about iPad ?

*2012-08-14, version 1.0*

Waiting its compatability for iPad,it's a must for me :(
Also Clouding feature will be an added value

### 5/5 — Great App and Support!

*2012-08-13, version 1.0*

Developer's response regarding the malfunctioning import from Camera Roll feature.  It worked like a charm.

The issue with importing photos from Camera Roll happens when you choose "Don't allow" in response to following pop up message:
"MyThings would like to use your Current Location.  This allows access to location information in photos and videos".

It can be resolved by going to iPhone settings, Location services and turning it ON for MyThings.

### 1/5 — Would like app better if it worked.

*2012-11-03, version 1.0.1*

I changed my auto lock setting to never to see what would happen, and all files returned to original locations. But after setting lock back on I could not bring any of the files back to there locked states. I could place the files back in to the lock app files but it just created duplicates, leaving one in the public files. in conclusion, if you want this app NEVER change the locking setting as there is a major glitch.

### 2/5 — Update or die

*2020-03-08, version 3.6*

Outdated interface. Update or die. Huge pain to go thru a photo collection. Can only delete one by one. No way to batch transfer in or out.

### 2/5 — Not impressed

*2018-01-28, version 3.6*

Notes (zero stars)
My main use for this app was to store passwords and sensitive information.  Sometime this involves going back and forth between applications/windows.  The main problem with Notes is that it doesn’t automatically save when you enter something and try to “switch” back to another window without pushing SAVE.  This results in whatever you had entered previously being lost and needing to be reentered. 

Why does the app not Save addition automatically or at least retains information until it is “closed”? ...  Extremely frustrated.

Other functions ( three stars)
Other functions are not really being used by me so I’m giving it a Neutral rating.

### 2/5 — Update breaks horizontal viewing

*2017-07-26, version 3.5*

The latest update appears to have broken any sort of screen rotation to view videos or pics in landscape mode. Worked great previously.

### 2/5 — What would make this an really awesome app

*2012-12-08, version 2.1*

If you can create a web browser like the app Hidden Camera where when you're taking secret photos, those eyes that are looking over your shoulder want see exactly what you're doing. They will think that you're suffering the Internet. Also - the intrusion report - I had my phone facing me and I don't know what in the world it was taking pictures of. Hope the makers would make improvements in these areas.

### 3/5 — Needs more features

*2012-12-11, version 2.1*

Nice app. It would be that much better if I could create links in the notes, and maybe a page that I can store links to apps that only I can see.

### 3/5 — Great app but needs work

*2012-12-11, version 2.1*

Layout is pretty good. Could be labeled instead of guessing what folder is what. Also it needs some user friendliness like mass deleting and mass moving pictures from one folder to another. It also would be easier, when moving pics from computer to iPhone via iTunes that you can move it directly into a folder created on phone in app. It would also be nice to be able to delete any folder on app. App runs smooth and gives a lot of options for protecting different forms of information.

### 4/5 — Was Great Until ...

*2021-02-20, version 3.6*

I’ve been using this app for a very long time. Since my last update (14.4) I can no longer select or copy text. This is frustrating. The whole reason I have this app is to be able to access protected information and copy/paste it as needed. Now I find I have to remember long numbers and codes and such and go back and forth. It’s awful. 

Please, please fix this!

### 4/5 — How to manually backup MyThings

*2017-08-13, version 3.5*

How do I export my media files to PC? When I connect to iTunes I'm only seeing access to "documents" but no photos/videos that I keep in MyThings

### 4/5 — Nice little safe

*2013-07-20, version 2.2*

This app works as advertised. Would be much safer to give it a 5 position lock than the current 4 position. Also, to not automatically fail or accept, make user choose the pattern and hit enter. Much more secure.

### 5/5 — Update

*2019-10-18, version 3.6*

I love this app but when will be update to get a better interface I have an iPhone 11 the interface is not so good update please I love the app

### 5/5 — Please update

*2017-03-15, version 3.2*

I use this app, but I am afraid it will stop working with a new iOS update. Please update. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Sweet

*2015-04-04, version 3.2*

Pretty awesome. Easy to use and useful! Only thing I can think for an update is comparability with the Touch ID for unlock.

### 5/5 — I am amazed!

*2013-06-03, version 2.2*

I haven't used the application that much but the layout got my attention right away. It's beautifully arranged!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2013-06-03, version 2.2*

Very easy to use and wonderful for keeping things private.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2013-05-12, version 2.2*

Content is safe from others

### 5/5 — Crash problems!!!!!

*2012-12-30, version 2.1*

Love this app.  Hasn't been letting me upload videos tho

### 5/5 — Best App

*2012-12-13, version 2.1*

Great! First app to really lock your things & doesn't ask you for the full Version. Worth getting!!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2012-09-03, version 1.0.1*

I think this is the best app of it's kind that I've downloaded, by far. There is no limit to folders, pictures, or notes, and it's completely FREE! What's also great is that the icon and name is not suspicious whatsoever. If ever anyone asks about it I just tell them it's for passwords and private info :) I love it and recommend it 100% 👍

### 5/5 — Super cool concept.

*2012-08-26, version 1.0.1*

Comes in handy when you're trying to hide those 😉pictures.
