PhotoGuard
PhotoGuard is an Android photo vault for hiding private photos and videos. The vault can be secured with a PIN, pattern, password, or fingerprint, and individual albums can have their own passwords. The maker says hidden files are encrypted on the device rather than uploaded to a server. A secret camera saves photos directly into the vault with encryption applied as they are taken. For privacy, Fake Vault opens a decoy space with a separate PIN, and Quick Exit closes the vault when the home button is pressed. Break-In Alerts record the time of a failed unlock and take a photo. Trash Recovery temporarily holds deleted files for restoration, and the maker says the vault can be restored automatically after accidental uninstallation. Private Cloud provides automatic backup and sync with unlimited space across devices running PhotoGuard; the privacy policy identifies cloud storage as a premium feature. The free download is free and includes ads and in-app purchases.
