This app worked for a few years with no problems. Then all of a sudden I'm unable to open any of my pics or videos. I lost everything. No help to recover them. - Update : still no help from developer. do not use this app unless you want to lose all your pics

Update today but they still have not brought back the optional app to make the app hidden and only accessible by a code you put in the phone dialer. Took forever for an update just to update the colors in the app? and still they havent brought back the app to hide it.

I've had it for many years but each time i change phones i lose all my pictures. When i got the new photo vault, i lost all the pics saved with the old photo vault. It works though. I can't use the code with the phone keypad with the new photo vault. I liked that feature.

My phone provider had to do a reset to my phone I had all my contacts backed up when I went to retrieve my content from the private section of PHOTO VAULT it said no content. So i EMAIL THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT OF THIS APP and it's been over a week is still no response. I LOST OVER 300 PICTURES THAT I TRUSTED ON THIS APP

The color scheme that they have chosen is dark against dark and is a great option so people cant read anything. During setup I just deleted.

About this app

With Android 6.0 Marshmallow, you might experience a problem that after you enter your password, the app crashes right away. If you run into this, just go to your phone settings, find apps, and then find com.android.PhotoVault and then check if “storage” permission is chosen. Enable that will fix this force close problem.

Update: Lollipop external sd card support. If you have android 5.0 devices, starting up PhotoVault will be prompt to grand permission to write to your sd card. In the browser screen, click menu (three dots on the top right corner), then choose "Show SD Card" (your device might be something different). Then on the top left corner, click the three lines, then choose "SD Card" (your device might be something different). Then click the bottom of the screen "SELECT SD Card". If you have questions regarding how to use this, please contact us (support@pacificsoftwaresolutions.net)

======================================

With PhotoVault, privacy is no longer an issue. You can show your photo gallery to all the friends, family, and strangers on the bus that you want because the embarrassing, the secret, the private photos are all hidden from view, tucked away in your Private gallery. In fact, when in Public mode, those hidden photos aren't even part of your photo gallery--their very existence is hidden. And more than just hidden from other people, they're hidden from other apps.

You can even set PhotoVault itself to open in Public mode, so it appears just like a standard photo gallery to any who might pick up your Android or be looking over your shoulder. Until, that is, you enter the password.

You, of course, have complete access to the photos in your Private gallery. You can manipulate them; share them via e-mail, messaging, Facebook, and other social networks; give a slide show; and more. You can do anything with them that you can with those in the Public gallery. The photos are easily transferred from Public gallery to Private gallery and back again with just a long-click on the photo's thumbnail.

If you ever have any questions on how it all works, there are instructions in the app and links to online support and FAQs. Best yet, the developer is actively working on PhotoVault, adding new features and taking requests.

Never be nervous about the privacy of the photos on your Android again with PhotoVault installed.
