Accidentally, when your phone falls into the hands of your friends someday, and you want to protect the stored pictures from their sight, there is nothing to worry about anymore. Here is a list of the top 5 apps to hide your pictures so that no one gets a view of your private photographs even if they control your gallery.

The KeepSafe Vault application has been around for quite a long time now and is considered to be one of the best choices to hide your pictures. There are regular updates to this application, upgrading its quality every time. The app carries the ability to lock photos and videos with the help of PIN, pattern, and fingerprint authentication as well. There are a variety of free and in-app purchases in the app. KeepSafe includes a slew of advanced safety features, including fake login PINs, break-in alerts, etc. to conceal the app with a separate front-end via Secret Door.

 

2. LockMyPix

This app, called LockMyPix, is intended to provide the safest photo crypt for safeguarding all of your personal media files. It uses the national guard AES encryption standard and allows you to hide photos with a PIN or a pattern. In fact, not only can you store pictures, but you can even click a picture and immediately add it to the vault.

You can easily shake the device to lock it and use your fingerprint whenever needed to unlock it. The best part is that one can not even capture a screenshot once the phone is unlocked, so nobody can try to keep your pictures outside the vault. This application is super secretive and super useful; it’s a must-have for you.

3. Calculator by FishingNet

Keeping a vault application on the phone is helpful enough, but if you want to hide the fact that you are using a vault to protect your private pictures from others, an app called “Calculator by FishingNet ” comes to your rescue. This application actually appears as a Calculator application. Once you open it, the first thing one will see is the actual space to make calculations instead of the vault. But don’t worry, right at the heart of it, the app has a secure vault hidden behind it. Create a PIN for it and you are all set with the hidden pictures stuck beneath the calculator. Basically, if your friends and family take up your smartphone quite often and there is a high chance of them eyeing the vault application, you definitely need to install ‘Calculator By FishinNet’ on your phone.

 

4. Safe Folder of Google Photos

Safe Folder of Google Photos is not exactly a vault app, but it makes sure that it safeguards the pictures you choose to hide. Recently, Google added a simple and easy-to-use section named “safe folder” that enables you to hide your personal images, sensitive documents, or videos. The application even supports storing audio files conveniently. You’ll find the Safe folder in the Collections section of the Browse tab. This feature by Google is used by many nowadays, so you may give it a try for this app once if you are exploring and searching for new vault apps.

 

5. Sgallery

Sgallery, another app that carries the ability to be disguised as a calculator or converter. Just like the app “Calculator by FishingNet” ,Sgallery too keeps people away from understanding it as a photo-hiding app. Not only a calculator, in fact, a web browser and a notepad are also included for safely browsing and storing texts. You need not worry if you accidentally forget the password someday. The app prompts you to enter a password reset question in case you forget one, which leads you back to the path.

 

6. Private Photo Vault 

Full of features is this app called “Private Photo Vault”.  The application performs every function, from passing directly from gallery to having a strong passcode, the app has got all. One beautiful feature is that this application even has a built-in photo editor so, for instance, if you want to edit changes in your hidden pictures,  you can do that in the applications itself.

 

So these were the top photo vault applications.  Make sure you try them at least once before opting for the paid applications. The features provided by them are no less than those of a paid application. You will be surprised right after using any one of them. So don’t waste time googling and surfing the browser and head to your Playstore to install the best vault.
