The iPhone/iPad host a handy feature that allows you to hide photos on your Camera Roll. This article will show you how you can hide photos in iOS 15 and iPadOS 15.
If you have a ton of pictures you want to store and don’t want them clogging your Camera Roll. It was common for people to use third-party apps, or they had to store sensitive information off-device in the cloud. Call it bad luck if you would, both solutions were hardly ideal.
Thankfully, we can now natively hide photos via our iPhone’s Photos app. Apple implemented this new feature in its iOS 14. By using this Hide feature on the iPhone/iPad, we can easily store photos out of sight.
