Album Lock Pro - Hide Private Photos Videos Movie & Documents Files in Secure Hidden Database With Password Protection for iOS

Album Lock Pro adds a much-needed feature to iOS, the ability to protect entire folders of documents or photos with a passcode. Innovative features like a decoy passcode make this app well worth a look.

Pros

Decoy password: Album Lock Pro allows you to set up a secondary password that will also unlock the app, but hide your photos and documents.

Automatic erase and lockdown: You can have the app lock itself down if it's running on your device unattended. And in the case of forced attempts to guess your passcode, you can set the app to delete the folder contents after a given number of wrong passcode submissions.

Support for complex passwords and recovery email: In addition to the standard four-digit numeric PIN, the app supports complex passwords consisting of digits, letters, and special characters. You can also enter your email in case you forget your password.

Cons

Outdated design: The app looks and works great if you're running iOS 5 or iOS 6. If you're on iOS 7, though, the design will strike you as outdated.

Bottom Line

Despite its rather outdated appearance, Album Lock Pro functions well on iOS 7. The ability to create an unlimited number of folders and the impressive file format support for up to 25 different file types make the app a good choice if you're looking to secure your device. That said, if you're not a fan of richly textured apps, you will find no shortage of alternatives on the App Store.
