Full description
Hide pictures & photos securely and conveniently in Photo Locker! - The ultimate hidden gallery app for hiding photos on Android. Sensitive photos from your Android photo gallery can be kept safely locked away in a secure Photo Locker accessible only via a secret PIN code. Key features include: 1)Encryption - hidden pictures are not only moved to a secret location on your phone but are also encrypted using advanced 128 bit AES encryption. This means that even if someone manage to steal your SD card and copy the hidden picture files, they will still be unable to view the locked photos. 2)User friendly operation - Easily hide photos via default gallery or from within Photo Locker itself. 3)Fast bulk hide - Keep safe hundreds of photos quickly 4)Folder level locking - lock individual hidden photo albums. This allows you to show only 1 hidden photo album without exposing the others. 5)Zoom in and out of hidden photos with multi-touch. Hidden photos maintain their original resolution and are not scaled down as in some other photo hiding apps. 6)Rotate hidden pictures left and right 7)Slideshow - Slideshow viewing mode available with customizable delay setting 8)Removed from recent app list - Photo Locker App will not appear in 'recent apps' list 9)Lock on sleep - If you forgot to exit the Photo Locker, the app will lockout as soon as your phone goes to sleep mode. 10)Tablet optimized - Photo Locker's UI has been designed with tablets in mind as well so as to provide the ultimate viewing pleasure on both Android smart phones and tablets 11)PIN recovery - With the optional PIN recovery feature, you won't lose your precious files even if you forgot your PIN code.
