Want to hide photos on your iPhone? You don’t need an extra app: Check how to do it

Our mobile is used for many purposes, such as making calls, banking, watching videos, clicking pictures, etc. If we talk about photos, everyone clicks pictures on their mobile and shows them to the people. But sometimes there are some such pictures, which we do not want to show to anyone else and want to keep hidden. Many people resort to third-party apps in such a situation, but this increases the risk of viruses in mobile.

You can now hide photos on your iPhone without using third-party apps. First, make sure that your iPhone is running at least iOS 14. This method will not work if the version is below iOS 14.

Here’s how you can hide photos on iPhone:

STEP1 – First of all, open the Photos app on your iPhone.

STEP2 – Select the photo or video that you want to hide.

STEP3: You can also select multiple photos or videos by tapping the Select button from the top-right corner of the screen.

STEP4: Now tap on the Share button.

STEP5: Select Hide from the menu.

STEP6: Confirm that you want to hide the selected photo or video.

STEP7: Now go to Settings and tap on Photos.

STEP8: Scroll down and turn off the Hidden Album option.
