Reviews of Hide Photos: LOCKED Calculator

2024-11-23	John Kawel	This app is really useful. I've got a lot of financial documents, invoices for work, family photos, private photo copies of letters, and much more that I need to keep private. The level of encryption makes me feel secure, and it's all behind an ordinary looking calculator app. It's so simple to use, and the ads are few and short. I love this app and applaud the creators. I've been using it for over a year and never experienced a hiccup or any kind of glitching. Great app, highly recommend it.

And it's not half bad in its ad-based free version either. The two features I'd love to see in this app are sub-folders and manual ordering of items within a folder. They aren't must-haves, but these features would put it on par with the top-tier file locker apps.

This seems to be completely random on what files it happens to. I have a backup with the videos that are missing but I am unable to open it. If it wasn't for that I would have no problems with this app.
2023-10-12	MurderChickenXL	Has one MAJOR flaw: If you restore an album it will erase your current pictures. That's just unforgivable! Plus side, even the free version lets you do so many things including backing up all of your photos etc to your email, Google drive you name it! But once again restoring a database makes your current photos all disappear. ALL of them! NOW I CAN'T FIND THE DANG PICTURES I LOST! Trying to contact the developer through the app. Edit: they don't care! Uninstalling finally!

My only complaint is that when I got a new phone, saved pictures/videos in the app don't transfer over automatically. You CAN do it manually. I wish we could make some form of account, or link it to a phone number or something so when the time comes, it can just be automatically transferred to a new device. It would suck to lose a device and lose all saved info in the app.
2023-06-30	Gregory	This is a good app for hidding personal photos but there are 2 problems with it. 1. You have the ability to screen shot the vaults content. 2. The ability to hide this as a calculator is great but if someone is very determined to find anything you may be hiding. If they look at all installed apps in system settings they will see the app as Locked photo vault. I was forced to uninstall this app for reasons and because it wasn't well hidden enough. I can never use the app again now.

Either store stuff you don't want seen elsewhere or buy a better app. For what I need, it's user-friendly and secure enough. I tried sneaking in like I have through other "private vaults" and have been able to access the content through the phone's operating system, and I'm a tech-idiot. -my 0.02
2022-09-22	Tam Bui	I bought the Premium version, but ended up uninstalling after several months of use because the features I wanted didn't exist. Mainly, the slideshow has no randomization, so watching the same order of pics gets super boring and predictive. Also, there's no search feature to filter content by name or otherwise. I ended up finding another app that had these features I wanted. I'd come back to this app if these features are ever implemented.
2022-04-16	athenaorea	This app does a good job at hiding files. If you turn off ur phone midst reviewing them it will ask for a code. If you go to the home page and go through ur past apps it won't show. However I've only run past one problem using this app. It was a few times where I was sharing some photos to people on social media. Instead dof sending the photos I chose to sent it some reason sent photos from the ones I had hidden. It wasn't a pleasant experience. I fear it will happen again.
2022-02-23	Ryan Hershey	Very helpful app! I have some important files that need to be protected, and this app does a great job of doing that! Edit: So, I've been having an issue where around 1/3 of my files have been getting corrupted for no reason, and I've been having to delete them as I can't find a way to recover them. This problem has been going on for only a few days, but it's still pretty annoying. Rating will stay at 3 stars until this bug is fixed.
