# Import Photos

## Let's protect

Log in to your Vault, select :heavy\_plus\_sign: in the bottom right and tap *Hide photos and documents*.

LockMyPix shows all photo albums from your public phone gallery. Choose any album and tap on one or many photos you'd like to add to your Private Vault. Submit your selection with the *Import Button* at the bottom.

**Tip:** Press for a second on a album to start the album selection mode. This helps to easily import one or many selected albums

### Some tricks

* Tap and drag on a single photo / album to select multiple files by drag and select
* Open a album and tap on *Import* without selecting a photo to import the entire album
* Press the :heavy\_plus\_sign: button from inside an already created folder in your Vault to directly import into this folder

**Top Tip:** Send a photo from any other app to LockMyPix to import it directly. For example from Snapchat, WhatsApp or Facebook
