To find the secure folder in the gallery on a Samsung phone, follow these steps:
- Open the Secure Folder app, which is usually found in the app drawer. If it is not visible, you can search for "Secure Folder" using the search bar on your phone or enable it via settings.
- Access the Secure Folder by unlocking it using your PIN, password, pattern, or biometric method.
- Once inside the Secure Folder, open the Gallery app that exists within it to view all the photos and videos stored securely.
- If you want to move photos from the regular Gallery to the Secure Folder, select the files in the Gallery, tap the menu options (three dots), and choose "Move to Secure Folder." The photos will then disappear from the regular Gallery and appear in the Secure Folder's Gallery.
If the Secure Folder option is not visible, you might need to enable it in settings: Go to Settings > Biometrics and Security > Secure Folder, and set it up if you haven't already. You can also add a Secure Folder shortcut to your app screen for easier access. This setup keeps your private photos and files secure in an encrypted space on your device protected by Samsung Knox security.
