    Any private photos app that lets you access them from other apps?

    Do any of the private photo vault apps allow you to seamlessly access the photos from other apps? Such as: can I use an app like Kik or Snapchat to access photos in the locked vault, without having to download the photos to my Camera Roll first?

    iOS 11 has made hidden photos almost impossible to find. Hidden photos do not show up inside albums, like they used to. Feel free to send feedback on this please - I'd love to see this changed back! Does anyone have any idea of a work-around?
