You can even <strong>create folders<\/strong> and ensure no file is ever lost. Every smartphone today has at least 50-60 GB worth of personal data. It can be difficult to sort these files based on priority and needs. Gallery Vault allows you to do so with ease and keeps these files sorted even when you unhide them.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"howto_item\"><h2>Store Private Videos and Images<\/h2><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-4.jpg\" alt=\"How to Use Gallery Vault - Hide Pictures\" width=\"450\" height=\"800\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;ve been using Gallery Vault for a while, you know that the app is about keeping your private videos and images safe.

You no longer have to fumble around with the app for long. The steps to hide your images and videos are straightforward. You can even set up a fake and real pin for the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fake pin is when you are using the app, and someone asks you to open the app to show what&#8217;s being hidden. When you <strong>enter the fake pin<\/strong>, the person can only see the images and video you have pre-selected when setting up the pin. This way, your hidden images and videos stay safe from prying eyes. When you enter the real pin, you can access all your hidden files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"191\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-5.jpg\" alt=\"How to Use Gallery Vault - Hide Pictures\" class=\"wp-image-197841\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-5.jpg 191w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-5-161x300.jpg 161w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-5-6x12.jpg 6w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/How-to-Use-GalleryVault-Hide-Pictures-5-150x279.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Benefits of using Gallery Vault<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Gallery Vault is a free tool that allows you to hide selected gallery content on your device.
