How to Hide Photos on iPhone?

You can hide photos on your iPhone using the built-in Photos app functionality. Here's how:

1. Open the Photos app on your iPhone.
2. Tap and hold the specific photo or video you want to hide.
3. A menu will appear. Select Hide.
4. Confirm your action by tapping Hide Photo (or Video).

The selected photo or video will now be hidden from your main library view. It will be moved to the Hidden album.

Accessing Hidden Photos

To view your hidden photos:

1. Open the Photos app.
2. Tap the Albums tab at the bottom of the screen.
3. Scroll down to the Utilities section.
4. Tap on the Hidden album. You may be required to authenticate using Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode.

Unhiding Photos

To unhide a photo:

1. Go to the Hidden album (as described above).
2. Tap the photo you want to unhide.
3. Tap the More button (three dots icon) in the upper-right corner.
4. Select Unhide. The photo will then reappear in your main Photos library, sorted by its original date.

Important Considerations

• The Hidden album is not password-protected by default. Anyone with access to your phone can view the contents of the Hidden album.
• You can further secure your Hidden album by enabling Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode to access it. To do this, go to Settings > Photos and turn on Use Face ID (or Touch ID or Passcode).
• Hiding photos is not the same as deleting them. Hiding simply moves the photo to a less obvious location.

By following these steps, you can easily hide and unhide photos on your iPhone, enhancing your privacy.
